In the cup it's sweet and comforting - with milk chocolate and dried fruits (we find dried apple, fig and raisin; alongside a hint of dried peel) as the dominant notes. As it cools there's a distinct butterscotch note alongside a syrupy body, with a little more fresh fruit - like pear.

Amatenango de la Frontera sits right across from Huehuetenango, one of our favorite regions in Central America, sharing the same highland conditions. SIPRO (Sierra Productora de Cafe) formed when nine young producers decided to bypass local commodity buyers and work directly with specialty importers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaw Material and Red Beetle's work with SIPRO shows what's possible with remote quality development — even as security issues in the region prevent physical visits. When the partnership began, processing was based on speed and simplicity, producing lower quality cups and final value. Through visits, video calls and detailed feedback, that's shifted to a 1-2 day cherry rest followed by 2-4 days of tank fermentation. Each producer's lots are processed and assessed separately, with the strongest lots either separated (to be sold for higher returned value) or combined into group lots like this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChiapas presents a stark contrast to coffee production in neighboring Oaxaca. While Oaxaca's producers balance coffee income with timber sales, Chiapas depends heavily on coffee - backed by established infrastructure and fertilizer distribution networks. It's Mexico's largest coffee-producing state, yet faces the country's highest poverty rates. Most producers work plots under one hectare, averaging just 100kg annual production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis context drives our house filter selections. Instead of crazy acidity or aromatic profiles, we're looking for coffees where consistent quality meets meaningful impact. SIPRO's evolution - from quick processing and commodity sales to longer fermentation times and direct relationships - perfectly fits that brief.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is exactly what we want in a daily drinker: approachable quality that works across brewing methods while supporting producers building long-term sustainability.
