mexico chiapas ki-saya - organic
Ki-Saya is our organic offering from Chiapas. The name come from the combination of two words in the indigenous Mayan language of the area: Ki, meaning “tasty” and Saayab, which means “nature.” Coffee is the most important commercial crop in Chiapas and has a long history in the region, representing a significant source of income for small producers, some 44% of whom are indigenous, mostly Tzotzil and Tzeltal.
Farmers in the areas where Ki-Saya coffee is sourced have improved their processing capabilities over the years, and now take great pride in delivering pristine parchment coffee that is some of the best in all of Mexico. Only the ripest, best cherries are selected; after depulping, the coffee ferments for 12 to 17 hours before being washed and dried on small drying patios next to farmers’ homes.
Roast: light
Tasting Notes: raspberry, honey, smooth
Espresso Recipe:
18g in / 40g out / 28 seconds
9 Bar Pressure | TDS: 9.8 | Extraction: 21.78%
