Mexico Sierra Azul - Medium-Dark Roast

$21.99

Café Sierra Azul is a small cooperative in Chiapas, Mexico within the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve—home to the largest evergreen cloud forest in Mesoamerica. Sierra Azul was founded in 2010 by young people in the community looking for opportunities to create sustainable livelihoods. The vast majority of the 300 members are young people and women who access better markets and financing as well as technical assistance and social projects through the cooperative.

This fair trade Mexico Sierra Azul coffee is celebrated for its versatility, structure, and beautifully approachable profile. At lighter roasts, it highlights notes of honeycomb sweetness layered with milk chocolate, almond, and a gentle orange lift. Moving into medium, the sweetness deepens with flavors of cola, chocolate, heavy cream, and warm baking spice. As a medium-dark profile, it grows richer with dark chocolate, toasted nuts, vanilla, caramel, and nutmeg. This coffee makes for an exceptional espresso with a lush crema, perfect for sipping on its own or beautifully paired with milk, or an approachable, delicious batch brew.

Flavor Notes: Cola, Milk Chocolate, Nutmeg


Elevation: 1200-1900 MASL

Process: Washed (The fruit/covering of the coffee bean is removed before drying)

Cultivar: Typica, Bourbon, Mundo Novo, and Geisha
