Certainly the most
adventurous time to visit is during the coffee season - December through
February. You'll see trucks barelling in and out of the city on the north side,
men hauling coffee in on their backs in a frantic scurry. Compared to cities
such as Managua and Chinandega, which can be exceedingly hot all year round,
Jinotega's climate is relatively pleasant due to its higher elevation.
