Mexico San Pedro Yosotatu

For decades Mexican coffees have been structured around large coops building massive community lots. In 2013, the Sierra Mixteca association broke away from one such co-op to form a group of 120 farmers that placed specific emphasis on quality in order to raise premiums for their coffees. Each smallholder farm has their coffee processed and evaluated separately before that coffee is added to a community lot or set aside to highlight a single producer lot.
