Sourced from the Chiapas region of Mexico, this organic offering from Big Creek Coffee Roasters showcases the work of producer Jose Juarez Alonso. The coffee is composed entirely of the Caturra varietal, a plant widely recognized for its balanced profile and adaptability. To ensure a clean and consistent cup, the cherries undergo a fully washed method, which typically highlights the inherent sweetness and clarity of the bean rather than the fruit-forward characteristics often found in natural-processed coffees.

At an elevation of 1500 masl, this lot develops a classic, comforting profile defined by notes of chocolate and toffee. These deep, sugary tones are hallmarks of many high-quality washed coffees from the region. For those looking to better understand how these specific descriptors fit into the broader spectrum of coffee quality, consulting a flavor wheel can be a helpful tool for identifying the nuanced layers within this approachable and well-structured Mexican harvest.
