REGION: Chiapas
PRODUCER: FESICH
ELEVATION: 700 - 1100 m
CERTIFICATIONS: Fair Trade, Organic
A medium bodied coffee with a well balanced acidity and a smooth finish. It has the fruity and nutty flavour notes associated with the region, with some hints of caramel, cocoa and earthiness.
Far down near the southern edge of Mexico, the Chiapas region is right on the border of Guatemala's Huehuetenango region, so the coffees share some similar traits. We apply our light-medium roast to these beans to maximize sweetness and allow all the flavor notes to shine through.
Fairtrade Organic originates from FESICH, founded in October 2009, representing 1,890 smallholder producers from Angel Albino Corzo, Capitán Luis Ángel Vidal, La Concordia, and Montecristo de Guerrero near El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve. The reserve, known for its diverse evergreen cloud forest, provides an ideal tropical microclimate for coffee cultivation in these adjacent regions.
