This lot comes to us from the Agropecuaria de Los Altos de Chiapas. This specialty coffee cooperative, founded in 2010, has 1320 members from 61 villages and 13 municipalities throughout the state of Chiapas. Agropecuaria de Los Altos de Chiapas strives to improve the income of small specialty coffee producer families through fair trade. They also focus on organic production to benefit the health of their specialty coffee producer members and their consumers. The southernmost state of Chiapas, Mexico is home to Mayan ruins, dense rainforests, and rugged mountain ranges. Due to the high altitude and tropical climate, Chiapas is ideal for specialty coffee production, and produces 60% of Mexico’s total coffee output.
