From our importing partner: San Cristóbal de las Casas is a “Pueblo Mágico” in Chiapas, a government designation “defined as places with great symbolism and legends, they are towns whose historical importance has been fundamental for the development of history and that enhance the national identity in each of its spots.” Nearly half of the population are of indigenous descent, mostly Tzotzil, many of whom earn their living in coffee. Located in the dramatically undulated tropical highlands of Chiapas, equidistant from the Pacific Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, San Cristóbal experiences significant variations in weather, from warm and wet to cool to dry and cool. This combines with rich soil to create ideal conditions for growing coffee.
