Organic Mexico Terruno Nayarita Natural

TIP: You can save products to your favorites list if you log in ***LIMITED OFFERING*** New 2012 crop is in, 6/21/12 and better than ever! Mexico Terruno Nayarita Natural coffee is Certified Organic, Direct Trade. All of the coffees produced bear a unique bar code which makes it possible to trace the beans down to the specific site where they were grown in the finca. This is a practice originated by San Cristobal and one which we wish some day to be embraced by producers the world over!
From the relatively unheralded climes of the State of Nayarit near Guadalajara comes arguably the greatest coffee produced in Mexico, and a drinking experience which is reminiscent of the finest African coffees. Powerhouse chocolate, orange peel and citrus notes, intense body and smooth finish. This pet project of importer San Cristobal Coffee shows the power of the direct trade model and the positive impact possible on a growing community. Unlike anything coming out of Mexico, simply gorgeous coffee is putting the Ejido Malinal co-operative on the world's-best map quickly.



El Ejido Malinal coffee is produced from old-growth tipica plants, some more than 100 years old. Beto Ocampo, production director of the coffee-growing cooperative, began working with Jim Kosalos in 1996 to export beans to the U.S. through the "Cristobal Coffee Importers" joint venture in Seattle, and production and quality have increased in the past decade year by year.
