Mexico Honey Finca Muxbal
- Warehouse:
Our Mexico Honey Finca Muxbal coffee is a specialty grade arabica offering from sixth-generation estate producers Jorge Gallardo and Juan Pablo. Our Honey Finca Muxbal coffee is shade grown in volcanic soil and has been Rain Forest Alliance Certification since 2006. The main varietals being grown are Caturra, Mondo Novo and Catuai.
Our Honey Finca Muxbal coffee gets its name from the word “Mam” in the Mayan dialect, roughly translated to “Place Surrounded by Clouds.” True to its namesake, the estate has a 583 acre extension bordering Guatemala about half of which is ecological rainforest and riverway reserves. Incredibly Finca Muxbal coffee’s history can be traced all the way back to the late 1700’s when the Chiapas region was still part of Guatemala.
Quality and social responsibility are core values for the producers of this Honey Finca Muxbal coffee. Muxbal acquired certification in 2006 as a socially responsible farm that encompasses the implementation of good practices that are friendly to nature and have a positive impact on the community. All farm employees have access to on-site housing, kitchen facilities, a tortilladora and dining room and a school for children arriving with their parents during the peak season.
Chiapas produces roughly 40% of Mexico’s total coffee output. Located on Mexico’s southern border, it is in close proximity to Guatemala and has an ideal climate for high-quality arabica coffee production. Overall Chiapas arabica coffee production is typified by the use of shade-grown, natural forest canopy and traditional growing methods geared towards generational sustainability.
