Description

raw green bean Green coffee is raw Roast prior to consumption

Hailing from the southwestern Mexican state of Oaxaca to the western mountain ranges of Chiapas, this bean has a rich cultural history––since 1989, the Oaxaca State Coffee Producers Network (CEPCO) has been uniting and supporting producers in order to create the highest quality bean with no stale flavors. The funds from CEPCO’s efforts went on to promote women’s organizations, provide support for families, and finance coffee production infrastructure improvements. Today, 90% of CEPCO’s farmers own less than 2 hectares to ensure a smooth harvest.

Surprisingly, one of my favorites. Not a connoisseur so I can't get into the wine type critique but it's freakin awesome! 😆

Tried this bean at medium, medium dark, and just after first crack. A bit milder and nuttier at medium dark, but medium was my sweet spot with this excellent bean. I'm new at roasting but have been hard at it since starting, I drink a LOT of coffee, all day long. This is in the top three of the dozen varieties of beans I have tried so far. Great flavors, especially good when it cools a little in the cup. I will purchase this again.

I have been buying this coffee for more then 8 years and it is always excellent. I like to mix a fairly light roast with a fairly dark roast. The favor is excellent! This is a great anytime of day coffee.

My favorite bean so far! LOVE THIS! I do a medium roast (I'm by no means an expert and only use a Nesco roaster -- don't judge!) and I do an espresso grind for the Moka Pot (Bialetti -- stove-top espresso). This bean does NOT disappoint!! <3

A great coffee I've now added to my rotation of favorite beans. Very good on its own and adds richness and depth when mixed with other beans. Nicely balanced, not as heavy as a Sumatra but more body and chocolatey than Central American beans. Makes a great espresso.

Delicious! Love its taste. Roasted it medium. Came out with a hickory taste to it. Made it in a Cortado and Italian Machiatto. Gave beans to some friends who had it as pour over, stovetop espresso and Cappuccino. All loved it. Would definitely buy again.

It’s ok, not my favorite. Does not roast well past a medium roast.

Roasted up just fine, use it making cowboy coffee (just toss grounds in the pot). Intend to buy more when this runs out. Thanks for the product.

Pushed the roast into the start of carbonization, about two thirds of the way through second crack. This yielded a very good nut like flavor, with sweet after taste. Each cup is like a warm sunny midday in spring. My first ever taste of freshly roasted coffee was in Oaxaca in 1969 and '70. Not this coffee but similar. There was a shop on the Zocalo that roasted the coffee and sold it for eleven pesos per kilo. Best coffee I ever had until I started roasting my own.

I always include this coffee in my orders. Very rich tasting and a great coffee for anytime of the day. At a medium roast you can taste dark chocolate and nuts in the finish. I love this coffee!

Wonderful coffee. Totally surprised and thrilled with the easy roasting to a medium to chocolate brown, almost a dark chocolate tint. I don't have colorimetry, so my explanation will have to do. It's probably a 5 star coffee. Very elegant.

I'm really pleased with this lot of Organic Oaxaca. Really good chocolate flavors which is what I hope to enjoy every morning. I roast to Dark on the Roast Vision scale... perhaps FC+? The earlier lot just wasn't as good but this lot is fantastic!

Roasting it dark. The word smooth just seems to fit here. Excellent.

Delighted with the results! Everything I want in terms of body and chocolate flavor with a dark roast (dropped as 2C was starting). Very pleased with this lot (June 2012?).

This bean is delicious! I roast a little past the first crack for a light/medium roast. I haven't tried to go darker with this one, but also haven't felt the need to. Smooth with good body and nutty flavor. Nothing crazy, but its just right :)

A very nice coffee bean. Yields a smooth cup of espresso. Roasts nice to just past first crack, but does equally well as a dark roast. Highly recommend this bean. This is the 4th time I have ordered this bean.

Probably my favorite being ordered from coffee corral so far! Roasts up very nicely and evenly and has a great smooth flavor.

I home roasted these to my darkness liking. The aroma is fantastic. The finish is quite nice with a little cream and sugar. Will definitely buy from this company again!

I had never tried any beans from Mexico. This one was surprisingly good. Balanced flavor, roasted evenly and I get very good crema out of this one. I will be reordering this one for sure!

It has a subtle difference in taste to Chiapas and seems to be more difficult to obtain at a good price. Obviously I enjoy both of the best of Mexican coffees. :one both a a medium roast.

Very smooth coffee. I roast it to City (just past first crack) and it is full of flavor with no earth or tea tones.
