Organic Mexico H/G Chiapas Tzeltal Tzotzil - FAIR TRADE

Mexico - You might be thinking that it’s just next door to us so how special can it be.  In a word “Great”.   Specialty-grade Mexican coffees like the ones we offer can e compared to a nice white wine.  They are dry with a delicate body, a gentle sweetness and fruitiness, and an acidic snap to finish off the experience. As you go higher into the mountains, the coffees begin to get even sweeter.  I would hold Mexican coffee's right up there with the finest of Central American coffees.  Mexican coffee is my go to morning coffee.

This coffee is sourced from family-owned farms organized around the Cooperativa de produccion Tzeltal-Tzotzil, an organization operating in the northern part of Chiapas, Mexico. Exceptional care is taken by producers to depulp, ferment and dry their coffee, which is aided by the use of farm-owned micro mills. Coffee farms from this organization tend to be less than ten acres in size, and produce honey as well as coffee. Farm owners and producers have focused on organic production methods to protect the environment, increase overall quality, and gain higher income to improve the livelihood of their families.
