Mexico Casamirio García + El Aguacate 2024 (Limited offering!)
flavor notes: semi sweet chocolate, dried cherry, honey almond
process: Casimiro García López of Pluma de Oaxaca, as well as his son Omar, face-to-face in Oaxaca. A second generation coffee farmer, Casimiro and his wife Reyna Petronila Luna farm 20 hectares (an unusually large farm for the Pluma region) just outside San Agustin Loxicha en Aguacate, a community growing both coffee famous for its malic character and avocados. Casimiro’s older children support in both farm work and marketing, contributing agronomic knowledge learned in local courses. In the off-season, the family works as blacksmiths.
impact: Community-based growing often fosters collaboration, knowledge sharing, and better market access for farmers within a region.
