History and traceability

The story

The Santa Teresa farm is part of the Consorcio Social del Café Mexicano and has established itself as a production unit focused on quality, sustainability, and continuous improvement. Its location in the buffer zones of the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve offers privileged climatic conditions, fundamental for the production of high-altitude coffees with complex and balanced profiles.

The farm spans 300 hectares, with more than half entirely dedicated to natural conservation — a balance between production and preservation that reflects a long-term vision where coffee quality is inseparable from the health of the surrounding ecosystems.

What makes Santa Teresa unique is its integration of technological innovation and environmental management within a coherent production model. The farm is divided into 12 plots for maximum traceability and agronomic control. Drones and bio-inputs are used to optimize crop management. Rigorous technical control is applied throughout the wet processing and drying. And the farm participated in the Taza de Excelencia México with remarkable sensory analysis results.

Santa Teresa was selected by Belco for the 2025–2026 harvest precisely for this combination: a farm working to restore sustainable production while actively exploring the full potential of its terroir through process innovation. Shared values with Belco include the conservation of coffee ecosystems, innovation applied to continuous improvement, traceability, and commitment to quality at all levels.

Originating from the same farm as the Natural lot, this washed coffee represents the most classic expression of Santa Teresa: a cup defined by its cleanliness, balance, and an authentic reflection of the Chiapas terroir. Cultivated between 1,300 and 1,600 m.a.s.l. within the buffer zone of the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve, it offers good acidity, a medium body, and the consistency that results from rigorous agronomic management and careful processing at every stage.

What makes Santa Teresa singular is its integration of technological innovation and environmental stewardship within a single coherent production model. The farm is divided into 12 parcels for maximum traceability and agronomic control. Drones and bioinputs are used to optimize crop management. Rigorous technical control is applied throughout wet milling and drying. And the farm has participated in Taza de Excelencia México with standout sensory evaluation results.

Santa Teresa was selected by Belco for the 2025–2026 harvest for precisely this combination: a farm working to restore sustainable production while actively exploring the full potential of its terroir through process innovation. Shared values with Belco include conservation of coffee ecosystems, innovation applied to continuous improvement, and traceability and commitment to quality throughout.

A clear and transparent expression of the Sierra Madre de Chiapas — clean cup, balanced, and a faithful reflection of the work done on the farm. It comes from a project genuinely committed to sustainability and environmental conservation, with full traceability and the consistency that makes it versatile across different roasting profiles. A classic, elegant representation of high-altitude Mexican washed coffee.

What we loved was the clean cup and the clarity with which the terroir characteristics come through. What surprised us was the balance between sweetness, acidity, and body — a very complete, easy-to-work-with cup that doesn't demand anything from the roaster.

Unmissable because it is a classic expression of Chiapas backed by a project that combines sustainability, innovation, and consistency in equal measure. Ideal for roasters looking for a fully traceable, reliable washed coffee that is representative of the region and accessible across brewing methods.
