This isn't an outlandish coffee, but a very attractive one to sip, with clarity in the flavors, modest intensity, and a crisp, clean finish. Raw sugar, cocoa roast tones, cinnamon bread, almond, flash of orange spice tea. City to Full City.
Full Cupping Notes
This isn't an outlandish coffee, but a very attractive one to sip, with clarity in the flavors, modest intensity, and a crisp, clean finish. The fragrance has hints of praline nut, vanilla bean, and spice. Adding hot water pulls out a deeper sweetness of brown sugar and molasses, subtler notes of cocoa, and roasted almond. The brew has balanced flavors, moderately sweet notes of raw sugar contrast mid-toned cocoa roast notes. It cools to top notes of cinnamon bread, sweet spice, maple, almond, and a flash of orange spice tea that adds to the acidic impression. While this Chiapas coffee should do well at a wide range of roast levels, we enjoyed taking our time working through our light City roast, enjoying the balanced bittersweet flavors that are offset by complementary brightness, and subtle accents.

Origin & Farm Notes
The Sierra Madre de Chiapas mountain range cuts across a good portion of Central America, and is home to countless coffee farms in Mexico's southern Chiapas region. The area is made up of mostly small scale coffee farmers, many with just a couple hectares of land. The coffee that makes up this lot is pulled from higher altitude zones in Siltepec, and Puebla regions, spanning a range of 1500 to 1900 meters above sea level. Most of the farms are planted in older Typica and Bourbon types, with Caturra, and Catuaí cultivars mixed in. Each farmer processes their own coffee at home using small depulping equipment (motorized or hand-crank), fermenting in cement tanks, and then typically drying the coffee on rooftop patios.
