In 2010, our partner Jesus Salazar developed a coffee-growing project in Chiapas involving the Caféologo Mayan communities. Today, he works directly with 280 micro-producers who grow high-quality coffee under shade on small farms averaging 2 hectares.
Sergio Orantes is one of them. He grows the Marsellesa variety in the Sierra de Cerro Brujo, in Chiapas, in a climate that is highly positive to coffee production.
Sergio Orantes will be working with Cafeologo for the first time in 2023. Jesus Salazar's team took care of the natural process for this coffee, and is looking forward to continuing to work with this producer to produce ever higher quality coffees.
