Mexico - Sakubel - Washed

Sakubel is a washed Mexican coffee from the highlands of Chiapas, produced by Indigenous Tseltal farming communities using traditional shade grown farming methods passed down through generations.

In the cup, expect notes of dried fig, caramelised sugar, and lime marmalade, with a rounded sweetness and a gentle citrus finish. It’s an approachable, well balanced coffee with plenty of character. It works well as both espresso or filter.

Carefully hand picked and slow dried in the cool mountain air of Los Altos de Chiapas, Sakubel is part of a newer wave of traceable Mexican specialty coffee that focuses on quality, community, and expressing the unique growing conditions of the region.

This washed coffee from Mexico's Chiapas region represents work with Indigenous Tseltal farming communities through Dear Green Coffee. Washed coffees typically develop cleaner, brighter profiles than their natural counterparts—a characteristic evident in this lot's citrus-forward character. The roaster identifies dried fig and camelized sugar alongside lime marmalade and citrus notes, suggesting a balanced interplay between sweetness and acidity.

The washed processing method plays a key role in highlighting these particular flavor expressions.
