Located in North America, Mexico has a diverse climate and is the world's fourteenth-largest country and the fourth-largest coffee producer, with an annual coffee production of about 5 million bags. Most of its coffee is produced by nearly 100,000 small-scale farmers, as the large estates that once dominated the coffee industry are now rare. Mexico's coffee yield per hectare is about 630 kilograms. It is said that Mexican coffee was first introduced in the late 18th century when a Spaniard transplanted coffee trees from the West Indies to Nayarit in central-western Mexico. Coffee cultivation in Nayarit has exceeded 150 years, with a French immigrant family beginning cultivation in 1860. Coffee here is grown at altitudes of 1200-1500 meters. These mountains are mostly volcanic areas, with soil composed of volcanic ash. The high altitude and fertile volcanic soil nurture coffee beans with a smooth texture and moderate acidity.
