El Castaño is a farm in the Sierra Madre of Chiapas. Grown just above 1,400masl, this Mexican Panasco variety is not as well known but still produces delectable flavours in the cup.

This coffee has been carefully honeyed to produce a rich and complex flavour, resulting in a dark fruit-driven profile with a buttery texture that's reminiscent of black grapes and plum.

Grind

IMPACT

Azahar works to ensure a coffee farm can generate a stable income. A cornerstone of our business is providing stable prices to farmers that align with improving income levels as defined by a Sustainable Coffee Buyer’s Guide.

We pay these prices in exchange for high-quality coffee to empower reinvestment in farms and families. Typical green coffee supply networks are overly tied to the volatile commodity market without systems in place to protect producer incomes.

Azahar works to ensure a coffee farm can generate a stable income. We collaborate with producer partners to develop quality parameters that unlock potential and
facilitate market access.

While we aspire to ensure producers we work with can
realize tangible, positive financial outcomes as they commercialize their coffee, we acknowledge that for too many who produce it, its future is threatened. Not just by environmental factors, like changing temperatures and rainfall patterns, but also by systemic poverty endemic among coffee producers from deference to the commodities market.
