Mexico San Francisco - Ozolotepec #1 (Espresso)

Osito has been working hard these last four years to build a presence in Mexico. They hope to not only find some of the best coffees that Oaxaca, Chiapas and Puebla can offer but we hope to create meaningful opportunities for farmers and communities. 

The limited quantities do not mean quality is low, often quite the opposite is true. What makes Oaxaca an especially unique area of Mexico for coffee is that the internal market is also very willing to buy Oaxacan coffees. So, Osito and their partners on the ground in Mexico have to work hard and compete to be able to source these tiny lots.  Then spend considerable time and effort to put together lots of similar cup quality/profile, moisture content and water activity to create what we refer to as “community microlots.”  For all the time and effort it takes to secure these lots, it is always worth it - these coffees are exciting and showcase a side of Mexican coffee often unexplored and under-appreciated.
