Fair Trade Organic Mexico Jaltenango Chiapas

This fair trade organic Mexican coffee comes from family owned farms who have come together around the Sociedad de Producción Rural Unión de Ejidos y Comunidades San Fernando, S.P.R. de R.I.  The Sociedad:

“has invested in nurseries to support more than 1,300 farmers to renovate their coffee farms. The organization is also leading efforts to assist their members to make improvements to their houses, and diversification initiatives such as coffee shops, and training programs to use Vermicompost that uses earthworms to turn organic wastes into very high quality compost (source: Royal Coffee).”

All these improvements have been good for the farmers and for the coffee.  This high grown FTO Mexican is delicious in the cup, with creamy chocolate tones and a lingering nutty taste.
