This natural Mexico coffee is brought to us by the Grupo Terruño Nayarita and is grown in the Nayarit community of El Cuarenteño, which is a rural community located in the foothills of Sierra de San Juan, just west of Tepic. The area was initially settled in 1910, established as the center of a wealthy landowner's farm. Several years later, the owner received petitions from his workers wanting to buy pieces of his land, but he declined their offer preferring instead to lease the property. In 1939 the Mexican government passed an agrarian reform resolution allowing the formation of Ejidos.  The following year the community of El Cuarenteño was granted an endowment of 3,500 hectares to form their own Ejido. The community of El Cuarenteño has several coffee producing societies, PROCAA, BASILIO, and RIVIERA and also two wet mill processing facilities. Currently the farms total about 840 hectares of coffee in production at altitudes between 900 and 1400 meters (2900 to 4600 ft). The landscape provides a beautiful panorama and breathtaking views of the famous “Three Marias Islands” on the Pacific Ocean. Comprised of Caturra, Catuai and Typica varietals the washed process gives the flavors we expect from a great Mexico specialty coffee. Flavor profiles are ripe orange, dark chocolate and a full body.
