Coffee of the Cross

Coffee from Nicaragua

Nicaragua is a country rich in coffee-growing tradition, specializing in the Arabica variety. This high-altitude coffee, cultivated at around 1,000 meters above sea level, is renowned for its exceptional quality. At Coffee of the Cross, we proudly uphold Nicaragua’s long-standing coffee culture, striving to produce the finest coffee by ensuring that every step of the process adheres to the highest standards of care and craftsmanship.

By maintaining these rigorous practices, we guarantee the perfect harmony of aroma, body, acidity, and balance, delivering a truly satisfying coffee experience—one that delights the senses and uplifts the spirit.

Our coffee offers more than great taste—it carries a greater purpose. Every purchase helps provide financial support for the Mountain of Peace Shrine, a sacred place of worship where many come to seek the peace of our Lord Jesus. Through your support, each cup becomes a small act of faith, helping sustain a haven of prayer and hope.
