Cupping NOTES 

Honey, raspberries, sugarcane

Sweet with a silky texture

This coffee is grown by Anayanshy Oltehua Tezoco and his family at Farm Pipitzotla, located in the Zongolica region of Veracruz. At an altitude of between 1,200 and 1,300 meters above sea level, Anayanshy works with the Colombia and Sarchimor varieties, taking care of every detail of the cultivation and processing.

For this lot, Anayanshy carried out an Anaerobic Honey process, which highlights sweet, citrus, and fruity notes, accompanied by a silky body and an enveloping texture. The result is a complex and balanced cup that reflects both the terroir and the care taken by its producer.

This coffee represents not only Anayanshy's work, but also that of many coffee growers who face great challenges on their farms to produce high-quality coffee. At Farm , there are few hours of sunshine, a key factor for the honey process, as it requires careful drying where the mucilage caramelizes with the action of the sun. For this reason, Anayanshy must transfer her coffee to another Farm greater sun exposure, which involves more effort, logistics, and additional costs.

For Anayanshy, there are two particularly meaningful moments during the season: gathering the parchment from the drying beds while playing with her nephews, and lunchtime in the middle of the harvest, when her father leads a prayer in the field to give thanks for the food and for the community.

However, the road has not been easy. As a young landowner, she is often not taken seriously. Some workers are reluctant to cooperate simply because she, and not her father, is in charge of the Farm.

His big dream is to compete in the Cup of Excellence, win this prestigious contest, and, together with his family, purchase the equipment they still need to continue improving the quality of their coffees.
