About the Coffee
This Mexico Chiapas coffee is excellent because it is grown in environmentally friendly high altitudes of 5249 ft on fertile volcanic soils. This is the core of the biosphere reserve in the Maya zone near the Pacific Ocean. The quality of these factors, soil, air and water, coupled with the skillful selection of the arabica cherries influence the delicious flavor profiles. The coffee notes are blackberries, chocolate with a fruity honey aroma and pleasant bright full-flavored taste.
The Montana Maya coffee plantations do not pollute the environment nor damage the ecosystem, the coffee plants are grown under tall trees of the tropical rainforest. The OCIA organically certifies Montana Mayan, Chiapas coffee production. Internationally by buying these products you are supporting Mexico’s Real Coffee Farmers. These farmers are Indigenous descendants that continue to grow coffee in traditional and environmental ways. They want to preserve their traditions as well as Mexico’s tropical rainforest.
SHG – Strictly High Grown, specifies that the coffee was grown at an altitude around 1350 meters. Coffee grown at a higher altitude and lower temperature produces a slower maturing fruit and a denser bean; which creates a more desirable specialty cup.
Progress
In 2013, coffee leaf rust decimated coffee production in Central America. Due to Chiapas’ proximity to Guatemala, it was one of the first regions to succumb to the fungal disease, but in recent years, it’s also been the first to bounce back. Today, Chiapas is leading the charge in innovation and investment to bring Mexico’s coffee production back up to speed, producing high quality coffee at even higher volumes than before. Everything that goes into growing Mexico Chiapas is natural, with priority placed on conserving and revitalizing the land’s resources. Most of the farmers in Chiapas are smallholders, and their economy is driven by coffee as a cash crop. This coffee is a beautiful example of Chiapas’ agricultural excellence.
