Mexico Chiapas

This lot is traceable to 877 small producers near the town of La Concordia in the Mexican state of Chiapas.

Formed on November 18th, 2015, this group was formed to get around the many intermediaries that separated these central Chiapas farmers from national markets. They organized quickly, getting 925 hectares under cultivation and certification as Fair-Trade Organic.

Seventy percent of Mexico’s crop comes from larger estates, concentrated around Veracruz, with the remaining thirty percent coming from 2 million small – holders, spread around the country but mostly

in the Southern States of Chiapas and Oaxaca.

This coffee has the kind of balanced and clean profile that we love in Mexican coffee. Along with a lighter body, we tasted hints of citrus and an herbal note that gave the cup a nice complexity while still being super approachable. It’s the kind of coffee you can drink cup after cup, day after day.
