The coffee is grown under shade trees in the mountains of Los Altos, including Sarchimor, Caturra, and Catuai varieties. The farms are treated with sustainable practices, such as compost and water treatment. This settlement is in the highest part of the region, which is why it is characterised by a normally humid and cold climate for much of the year. This creates a microclimate for an exceptional flavor in the cup.
The producers use artisanal processes such as hand depulping, fermentation tanks, and sun drying. The most peculiar thing regarding this coffee is that the producers do semi-washed processing, as they only ferment the coffees between six to 12 hours, creating unique flavors.
“Mad Mash” is a combination of English and Tzotzil. Mad in Tzotzil is monkey, so Mad Mash means Crazy Monkey. The name was inspired by a joyous drive to Chimhucum by our exporter partner Andreas Kussmaul.
NKG Bloom is an initiative of Neumann Kaffee Gruppe (NKG) to ensure the long-term viability of green coffee supplies by providing smallholder farmers with the opportunities and resources they need to run their farms at full potential and enter a pathway out of poverty.
Participating farmers are smallholders, and they commit to collaborating with our teams to run their farms as businesses and improve upon prioritized social and environmental practices.
