Origin & Processing

Grown in the highlands of Chiapas, this lot undergoes a carefully controlled washed process, beginning with a short fermentation before being dried on raised beds in temperature-controlled greenhouses. Meticulous sorting and quality control at every stage result in a clean, expressive cup that highlights the farm's commitment to excellence.

The result is a vibrant coffee with bright, Kenya-like acidity and the clarity that has made Finca Las Chicharras one of Mexico's most celebrated coffee producers.
