The citrusy, hoppy aroma of this Mexican coffee is balanced nicely by a full, creamy body, and a mildly spicy aftertaste. This is a delightfully complex cup of coffee.

Maya Vinic – Mexico
The Cooperative "Producers Union Maya Vinic" is comprised of some 700 coffee farming families located in 36 highland communities in the municipalities of Chenalho, Pantelho and Chalchihuitan, in Chiapas, Mexico. Inspired by the traditions of their ancestors, Maya Vinic is organized and operates in keeping with a respect of local culture, language, reverence for the Mother Earth and traditional forms of self-government.
Meeting with Yachil Maya Vinic was born out the wider civil society "Las Abejas”, an organized response to the prevalent injustice in their communities and in the hopes of promoting positive change and autonomous development by pacific means. The plight of their communities came to the public eye in the aftermath of the infamous Acteal Massacre, where 45 men, women and children were killed by paramilitary forces and thousands more displaced from their homes.
