Being one of the southern-most regions of Mexico, it shares a border with Guatemala and the entire region is well known for coffee production. While there are some similarities in growing conditions, the volcanic soil brings some unique properties to coffee from the Chiapas Highlands. This one brings all the best that the region has to offer, with a heavy body, low acidity, strong chocolatey and nutty notes, and slight bright fruitiness that makes it a great all-around coffee. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo be very transparent, it took me quite a few tries to figure out how to roast this one in a way that I liked. Normally I can cup 3-5 samples of a coffee and know how I want to roast it. For this coffee, I was torn between lighter roasts and darker. The lighter version of this has a great sweetness and caramel-like expression while the darker roasts really brought forward the chocolatey notes. It took me 8 sample roasts to really hone in on what was the best way to roast this one but now I'm much more confident I'm portraying the best of what this bean has to offer. I ended up taking it into second crack to allow the caramelization to continue further but stopping before I lost some all of the nuances in the cup. You can expect mostly a classic flavor profile with a little more brightness, preventing the coffee from feeling flat or muddy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFirst Crack: ~8:30, 196C\u003cbr\u003eSecond Crack: ~\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEnding: ~11:20, 218C\u003cbr\u003eMoisture Loss: 15.8%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrewer's Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coffee is very versatile.
