Producer Profile
This is our third year working with coffee from Adonai Perez Sanchez. Adonai is a member of SIPROCAFE, a producer association based in Amatenango de la Frontera, Chiapas, near the border with Guatemala. Adonai's farm is located in the Sierra Madre de Chiapas mountain range. On his farm, Adonai grows Caturra, Bourbon, and Catuai. He produces washed, natural, and honey processed coffees. This season, we selected his washed Caturra: a warm, comforting, and sweet coffee that continues what is becoming a tradition of strong showing from the region.
*Refer to our Grind & Brew Guide for recipes and grind setting ranges tailored to specific grinders and brewers.
For best results we recommend resting your filter coffee for two to three weeks post-roast before brewing.
Chiapas, which shares a border with Huehuetenango, Guatemala, produces the most coffee of any of Mexico's states, at 40% of the country's yield. Given Chiapas' proximity to Huehuetenango, there is obviously high quality potential for this region with its high altitudes, favourable climate and volcanic soils.
A natural mutation of Bourbon, originally discovered in Brazil in the early 20th century; Caturra derives its name from the Guarani word for “small,” a reference to its diminutive stature that results from a single-gene mutation causing dwarfism. It was this small size- allowing for more trees to be planted closer together- that led to mass selections of Caturra being made by the Instituto Agronomico (IAC) of Sao Paulo State in Campinas in the 1930’s. Caturra then made its way to Guatemala during the 1940’s and then was widely adopted in the 1970s by the rest of Central America, where it is now one of the most economically important varieties. At high altitudes Caturra has strong quality and yield potential but unfortunately, is quite susceptible to disease.
