Mexican Coffee Growing Regions

Mexican coffee is classified by altitude, with most of the country's coffee used for blends and/or dark roasts. Since the late 18th century, Mexico has been growing coffee, and most of the country's coffee now comes from the southern regions where the continent narrows and curves eastward.

Mexican Chiapas Coffee

Chiapas coffee is grown in the southern state of Chiapas and is known for its light, delicate flavor and rich, bright acidity with light to medium body. The hot tropical climate provides good growing conditions and produces fairly consistent characteristics.

Particularly noteworthy is that Chiapas coffee is grown in the southeastern corner of the mountainous region near the Guatemalan border, often marked with the town name Tapachula, the name of a nearby town. The nearby volcanoes provide fertile soil that improves the coffee's nutrient supply, helping to develop its flavors. It's said that fine Chiapas coffee can rival the complexity and strength of better Guatemalan coffees.

Veracruz Coffee

Along the Gulf side of the central mountain range in Mexico is the state of Veracruz, where most coffee grows in the lowlands and is unremarkable.

However, the nearby mountainous region produces the respected Altura Coatepec, named after the town of Coatepec, known for its nutty flavor, light body, and brightness with chocolate undertones.

Mexican Oaxaca Coffee

Particularly worth mentioning is coffee from the southern slopes of the central mountain range in the southern state of Oaxaca, called Oaxaca Pluma coffee, known for its light body and delicate acidity.

Puebla Coffee

Puebla is one of Mexico's larger states, located east of Mexico City.

Mexican Coffee Plant Varieties

The coffee plant varieties grown in Mexico are mostly Bourbon (Coffea arabica var. bourbon), Caturra (Coffea arabica var. caturra), Maragogype (Coffea arabica var. maragogype), and Mundo Novo (Coffea arabica var. mundo novo).
