Mexico - Orizaba Santuario Project

This exceptional coffee comes from Ixhuatlán del Café, Veracruz, part of Mexico’s historic and resilient coffee landscape. Grown at high elevations in rich volcanic soil, the rare Criollo varietal—descended from Ethiopia’s Typica—offers delicate, complex flavors. Though low yielding, Criollo is preserved by farmers dedicated to quality and heritage. Processed at the state-of-the-art Santuario Project facility in Orizaba, this lot showcases Mexico’s commitment to specialty coffee, sustainability, and producer empowerment through cooperatives and innovative cultivation practices
