About this Coffee
A few years ago, our green buyer had been lamenting that Mexican coffees were difficult to source at the farm level. Mexico’s coffee production has been on the mend following catastrophic losses due to coffee leaf rust. What was challenging was finding a connection with a particular farm or cooperative rather than a regional blend. Then, back in the spring of 2020, as the harvest was well underway, an email appeared in our buyer’s inbox from a family owned operation called La Chilana. We’ve been buying this coffee every year since then and has become one of our shelf staples here at Noble Coyote Coffee.
In the cup, we find a smooth milk chocolate body with a balanced acidity. Brown sugar dominates the profile, but look for a hint of lime as the cup cools.
