Mexican Robusta
The production of Robusta coffee in Mexico is quite significant, representing around 14% of the country’s coffee production. This specie can be found in all the important coffee producers states like Oaxaca, Veracruz, Puebla but the main production area is in Chiapas. Most Robusta is natural processed and sold to the local roasting industry. Washed Robusta Agata is grown by Don Antonio Luttmann and his family in their farms Genova, Alianza and Independencia which are located in Soconusco area of Chiapas. Already in third generation, the Luttmann familiy has an outstanding reputation as coffee farmers. The ripe Robusta cherries are carefully separated and brought to Alianza farm where in a centralized modern wet mill, coffee pulping and washing process take place. Thereafter the coffee is dried for a couple of days at the “patio” before the final drying process takes place in the drum dryers.
Cupping Notes: slightly herbal as chamomile tea, hazelnut and maple syrup with a creamy body
