ORIGIN

Farm: Mayan Harvest Region: Chiapas, Mexico Process: Washed Variety: Bourbon, Caturra, Catimor Elevation: 1550-1650 masl

The Mexico Mayan Harvest, sourced from the Chiapas region, represents a classic expression of the Bourbon varietal. Cultivated at elevations between 1550 and 1650 meters above sea level, this lot is produced by Mayan Harvest and prepared using the washed process, a method typically employed to highlight a coffee's inherent acidity and clean finish. When evaluating such profiles, roasters often look for a balance between structural sweetness and vibrant fruit notes, which can be mapped using a flavor wheel to better understand the interplay between the dark chocolate base and the brighter, citrus-forward characteristics of grapefruit and plum.

This specific offering is roasted by Press Coffee Roasters. By focusing on the traditional Bourbon cultivar and meticulous washing techniques, the producers have created a cup that bridges the gap between deep, comforting cocoa tones and the nuanced, stone-fruit acidity frequently sought by enthusiasts of high-altitude Mexican coffees.
