Hello and welcome Ricardo;
What part of Mexico do you grow coffee in? What are some specifics of the beans you grow and sell?

You’re right Ricardo. If you love coffee to have it more, then be a coffee farmer because you are not only sharing how good coffee for us but helping to have enough supply of coffee. Coffee industry is doing fine nowadays, and it is the only business doing well even we experience crisis.

Thank you CoffeeLover, It is wonderful to hear from lovers of coffee who care. We work hard to reassure our buyers that our coffee is free of unapproved pesticide
residues (in fact, we use the Robusta plants as a method to deal with fungus, etc). Our
coffee have had no or only very limited exposure to insect infestation in the field, and it
is free of all chemical and other contaminations, including mould and live insects

specifics of the beans.
Yes, CanadianBrian, thank you for your welcome.
and to answer your question: We grow the Arabica bean at 1800ft over sea level at the Coatepec, Ver. area in Mexico.
We certainly give it a lot of love and care as much as possible to be organic...since...forever, really. Our family have been in the coffee growing
business as long as I can remember, and we love what we do.

About Quality when choosing Coffee...
There are many differing views as to what constitutes 'quality', just as there are about beauty. But it can be said that the quality of a parcel of coffee comes from a combination of the botanical variety, topographical conditions, weather conditions, and the care taken during growing, harvesting, storage, export preparation and transport.
Botanical variety and topographical conditions are constants and therefore dominate the basic or inherent character of a coffee. Weather conditions are variable and cannot be influenced, resulting in fluctuating quality from one season to another.

That's right CoffeeLovers,
I still remember waking up to the coffee roasting by my grandma when I was a child. All of us woke up early to go for the harvest. It was simply a wonderful waking up to the smell of fresh coffee as we got ready to go work (although, I just went to play around by the river...)

Hello everyone,
We just tried shipping a Sample of Green to our friend Buzz Toaster to no avail.
As it turned out, the U.S prohibit it unless a long trail of paperwork is left behind.
Really, the time(weeks) and energy spent is not worth it over a 250g pack.
Is there a way to send a Sample without the hassle?
We would appreciate your input.
Thank you in advance
