Reviews
Average rating
Very nice coffee. Made in cafetiere. Has a mild fruity hint, and a pleasant aftertaste
Dark and smooth. Surprisingly smooth. Will be purchasing this again
Love this coffee, It’s so nice would definitely buy again, but have found the grind a bit fine and doesn’t flow out out the filter as smooth as other coffees we’ve purchased.
I am a hopeless reviewer,but this is what I think of all your coffees. I always grind the beans immediately before they are used in my Italian Rancilio Machine. The coffee, which results, always tastes better than any I can buy anywhere or any made by friends. My coffee always tastes best The same is true of your decaffeinated coffee. I cannot tell the difference between caffeinated and decaffeinated. The beans are always vivid and fresh.
We make this in the cafettiere, excellent especially if we leave the beans a little coarser than usual
A real winner and a great favourite with my son in law!
A family favourite, very nice especially wh Sunday breakfast!
Very moorish easy to have more than one cup! Gorgeous
Agree with the previous reviewer, I make mine with a French press. Flavour is dark with citrus cutting through, very morish.

Additional Information
This coffee comes from a group of small producers called Tierra Libertad in a very hard to get to place called Angel Diaz in the area of Siltepec, Chiapas State, Mexico. We were here in Jan 2017.
Our meeting was with Rayder Peter Hernández who farms 10Ha of Red / Yellow Bourbon, Sabira De Leon, farming 10Ha of Bourbon, Herminia Hernández the daughter of Sabira farming 1Ha of outstanding Bourbon, Gregorio Munaz Angel farming 9Ha of Bourbon and Arabe and Julio Roblero Vazquez, farming 3Ha of Bourbon.
It basically took us three days of flying and driving from Mexico City to Tuxtla Gutiérrez and then on to Angel Diaz - what took the most time was around 47 miles of dirt and rock track which took us up to 1900 meters ( 6230 feet) which is where these guys farm and now you can drink their new crop.
Angel Diaz is locatied in the central part of Chiapas which holds the cloud forest and middle rain forest of the Soconusco zone around the Novillero River.
Chiapas borders the Guatemalan border and thus the coffees from this area in our opinion is little brighter and sweeter than the rest of the other growing areas in Mexico – bearing more resemblance to the Huehuetenango growing areas of Guatemala.
The cherries are as selectivity picked as possible and then an additional pre-sorting happens before wet processing on the farm to make double sure that only the best and ripest cherries are processed. The coffee is wet processed which consists of depulping the cherries and removing the fruit and some of the mucilage on the beans through a washing process which is done on the day of harvest.
The coffee is left overnight in fermentation tanks to complete the fermentation process. After this the coffee is washed, and the parchment is carefully set on the patios for sun-drying.
