Our very own Philip, the coyote to Coyote’s Coffee, traveled to Mexico in January to work with coffee farmers in the Chiapas region. This region is located in the Southern most region of Mexico right next to the Guatemalan border.
To make this journey he took a flight to Mexico City then another flight south to the city of Tuxtla. From here he took a 6-hour road trip to the Mountains where he ended up in the small town of Yojalon. Along this drive, he saw many sites of Mayan Heritage and was in the Territory of the original Mexican Aboriginals. Most coffee plantations in this area are at Altitudes of 4500 to 6000 ft.
