Produced by Silvia Herrera in the Chiapas region of Mexico, this lot showcases the Tupi varietal grown at an elevation of 1450–1600 masl. As a fully washed coffee, it reflects the meticulous preparation typical of this processing method, which often highlights the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean. While washed coffees are frequently celebrated for their clean, vibrant profiles, the specific character of this harvest is brought to life by the roasting expertise of Heart Coffee Roasters.

When evaluating the nuances of this Mexican origin, tasters may find it helpful to reference the flavor wheel to identify the specific aromatic compounds present in the cup. Because Tupi is a distinct varietal, it offers a unique opportunity to explore how regional terroir in Chiapas influences the final profile. This entry serves as a snapshot of Silvia Herrera’s work, representing the intersection of careful cultivation and precise post-harvest handling.
