Ever stop to think about all the variables that factor into creating a distinct, complex, clean and consistent regional blend? It is mind boggling if you think about terroir to post-harvest processing and everything in between.

And what about the human factor from farm management all the way through to brewing.

This lot beautifully represents the Jalapa profile traceable to small farms in the region.

Families with farms that average just a few acres in size have partnered with an export company called Lux Cafe to process their harvest.

Farmers deliver their cherries to a centrally located mill where Lux Cafe can depulp, ferment, and dry coffee. After drying, the coffee is moved to the Lux Cafe dry mill where it is prepared for export.

The consistent processing produces a traceable community blend that stands out on the international market and earns better prices for farmers.
