Grown beneath a canopy of shade trees, the coffee benefits from a slower maturation, resulting in a clean and expressive cup. Many of the producers also implement the traditional milpa system of planting crops like beans, corn, and squash alongside their coffee to ensure self-sufficiency for their families.

Like many producers, the cooperative faces significant challenges, from climate volatility to plant diseases like leaf rust. Despite this, the women continue to invest in their futures, negotiating for access to land and decision-making power in a region where they have historically been excluded.

We purchase this lot through our importing partners at Ensambles, an independent company based in Mexico, Sourcing & exporting Mexican Specialty Coffee globally, they partner with indigenous smallholder producers, promoting Agroforestry & regenerative agriculture in 5 different states.
At Girls Who Grind Coffee, we seek out organisations like Ensambles and COFEMO that are actively working to close the gender gap. Through their work, we ensure a better price for women’s coffee, and a better coffee for you!
