It’s our favorite time of year, and we’re proud to offer a delicious coffee that honors a tradition dear to our hearts. Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is one of the most important annual celebrations in Mexico and Latin America, and we cherish the opportunity to help preserve and communicate its cultural heritage and importance in our communities. We’re pleased to bring you an exceptional coffee from the heart of Sierra Sur in Oaxaca, Mexico, through our longstanding partners in the Sicobi group. Beautifully balanced with notes of pear, Rolo candy, and nougat, our Mexico Sicobi is one of our most anticipated coffees of the year, and we’re delighted to share it with you. Mexico Sicobi is one of those special coffees that get better every time we taste it. Now in its eighth year, our relationship with the Sicobi communities gives us the opportunity to witness and taste the efforts they continue to make toward quality and sustainability. Coffees processed at Sicobi are known for breaking the mold of the standard Mexican coffee profile. With its warm, comforting flavors, this year’s offering embodies autumn’s essence, perfect for cool, crisp days.
We’ve been building a relationship with the Sicobi group since 2016 and continue to be impressed with the consistent quality of the coffee they export. Founded in 2010 by the non-governmental organization GAIA to support and encourage biodiversity, Sicobi now manages 1,500 hectares of coffee plantations owned by 500 growers in Oaxaca. They select only a small percentage of the available coffee to focus their efforts on developing quality and differentiating markets. The coffees processed through Sicobi don’t fit the standard Mexican flavor profile you may be familiar with. Some of these coffees possess an almost fruity character similar to naturally processed coffees, despite being fully washed, due to the unique conditions of the region, particularly the very dry landscape that creates a distinct micro-climate. This year’s lot is exceptionally strong, boasting a pleasant citrus acidity and a malty, sweet character.
To provide you with the freshest product, all coffee is sold as Whole Bean by default. If you would like your coffee ground please select from the dropdown.
