You wake up in the morning and how do you start your day? If you’re like the rest of the world, probably with a cup of coffee. For many, the first coffee in the morning is a ritual to start the day and it all starts with choosing the best coffee. Whether you have an Italian coffee maker, a French coffee maker, or a filter coffee maker, La Chiapaneca’s coffee varieties are all you’ll need at any time of the day.
The coffee varieties come from Chiapas, a state in southeastern Mexico known for being one of the states that harvests the most Arabica coffee in this country. La Chiapaneca’s espresso, ground or filter coffee has exotic fruit, chocolate and roasted nut characteristics. The harvest is carried out from September to January and is collected by hand: the 300 producers move from their homes to their plots every day for the good care and management of the coffee plantations.
To contribute as a cooperative in the care of Arabica coffee from beginning to end, the varieties of natural coffee are roasted in Catalonia (Barcelona) in a natural way (without sugar); the quality of the coffee is preserved thanks to the packaging that has a valve making the coffee remain fresh as if it were just roasted.
The varieties of natural coffee from La Chiapaneca are medium roasted which makes them have an intense flavor without losing the fruit, chocolate and roasted nut flavors … which makes it the best specialty coffee in the Peninsula.
Coffee varieties from La Chiapaneca
La Chiapaneca is a cooperative founded in 2019 by Claudia and Alex in Barcelona, with which they import Mexican specialty coffee harvested in the Altos de Chiapas in Mexico. Both Claudia and Alex are coffee-loving entrepreneurs who are committed to ensuring that profits from the sale of coffee go to social projects in the coffee-growing communities in Mexico.
They currently work with the Tzeltal Tzotzil Cooperative which was established in 1986 and is located in 25 communities belonging to 6 municipalities in the Chiapas Highlands. The main objective of the cooperative is the commercialization of coffee, honey and artisanal products at a local and international level under fair conditions.
