Mexico - smaller farms, independent operations, exceptional coffee production
Regular price$0.00 Sale price
On small, mountainous farms led largely by Indigenous growers, there’s a quietly impressive treasure thriving: Mexican coffee. Although Mexico is rarely mentioned among the world’s top coffee origins, it absolutely deserves a place on the list. The country produces uniquely fruity, character-filled coffees, carries a strong social and environmental story, and has a long, meaningful history in coffee cultivation.
According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (SADER), Mexico is one of the world's largest exporters of organic-certified coffee, with up to 8% of producers growing it.
Typical coffee producing climate in Mexico consists of high altitudes, ample shade, volcanic soil, and an abundant of rainfall. Mexico’s coffee farms are often smaller, family run operations so it's quite common for whole families to help with cultivating, harvesting, and processing. In most recent years of 2018/2019 Mexico exported a total of 2.6 million 60-kilo bags, making it the ninth-largest coffee exporter in the world.
