Mexico Los Altos Tzeltal
Mexico Los Altos Tzeltal
THE FARM: The Tzeltal are one of the main indigenous Mayan people living in Mexico. Almost everyone in this highland region of Chiapas speaks Tzeltal as their first language, and they rule the area with their own customs and laws to preserve their traditions and culture. The community refers to themselves as Winik atel, "Working Men". The vast valleys and hills of Chiapas are home to Los Altos, which lies at 1,600-1,850 meters above sea level. Rich deposits of marble stone cover the ground in shady primary forests that border the Lacandona jungle. Coffee grows among native species, often organically by default.
OUR ROAST: The processing method yields a super-clean cup… and our deep roast brings to life the delicious flavors of this mountain coffee, balancing apricot and citrus-notes nicely with milk chocolate, honey and almond. This is just a great everyday drinking coffee!
