Mexico Chiapas Turquesa
- Warehouse:
Our Mexico Chiapas Turquesa is a very versatile coffee that can be blended, roasted light or dark and roasts up nice and BIG! Chiapas as whole is well suited to produce an almost Guatemala-like coffee, that is to say medium in body, medium in acidity (although not as much as the Guatemalan Huehuetenango), and with light hints of an oak-like woodiness and some spice. This lot of Mexico Chiapas Turquesa is shade grown and a HG (High Grown) grade offering from the southern mountains of Chiapas, outside Soconusco.
Medium body, medium acidity, hints of woodiness and spice, chocolate finish.
The growers of the Mexico Chiapas Turquesa produce a variety of Bourbon, Caturra and Catuaí varieties and transport their parchment to the wet mill in Tapachula. Chiapas coffee is a fantastic all-purpose addition to any menu—over the years it has been one of specialty coffee industry’s best kept secrets! The mountainous highlands of Chiapas provide an ideal climate in terms of temperature and humidity for arabica cultivation.
