Ipanteptl is an organization of 15 smallholders of Nahuatl and Mazateco indigenous background in the communities of La Cumbre, Ojo de Agua and La Guacamaya in the Sierra Negra of Puebla who organized more than 20 years ago to improve their quality and income in the wake of the price crisis and losing over 80% of their production to coffee leaf rust.
Until 2017, the organization grew rapidly to 80 producer families by delivering higher prices to producers through its focus on producing and marketing certified organic and fair trade coffees. Administrative faults jeopardize the income of the group’s members and after the cooperative lost the confidence of the community it was dissolved.
In 2018, the group, whose members had returned to commercializing their coffee on the local market, reintegrated with the support of older and younger generations as a small cooperative with the aim of resuming production for the export market. With many of the group having renovated their farms with the Gesha variety and receiving the training provided by the Secretariat of Rural Development, Ipanteptl is positioned well to produce exceptional coffee; in 2021, members of the group participated in the Pride of Puebla contest.

This is an affordable example of the Gesha variety. The coffee was dried in it’s parchment form, after de-pulping and fermentation, making this a classic washed coffee. Produced by four smallholder farmers who pooled their production to market their coffee to international buyers like goodboybob, this Gesha expression tastes like fresh cherries, lavender, clementine, and hibiscus.
Roast: Light
Tasting Notes: Cherry, Lavender, Clementine, Hibiscus
Consumption Guidelines: Three 12 ounce bags are about a one month supply of coffee for households with two to three coffee drinkers.
