We are thrilled to introduce our newest single-origin coffee, Mexico Pluma Santa Cruz, a shining example of the dedication and craftsmanship of 12 smallholder farmers from Santa Cruz Ozolotepec, Oaxaca. This coffee is a true reflection of the unique growing conditions of the Sierra Madre del Sur coastal mountain range, offering a taste of the vibrant Mexican landscape in every cup.

A Journey Through Oaxaca

The coffee-growing region of Santa Cruz Ozolotepec is located in the scenic and remote mountains of Oaxaca, where the journey to the farms winds through traditional villages and lush forests intercropped with bananas, corn, and fruit trees. The area’s altitude ranges from 900 to 1250 meters above sea level, creating ideal conditions for cultivating Typica, Criollo, Bourbon, Mundo Novo, and Caturra coffee varieties.

The volcanic clay mineral soil, combined with careful cultivation methods, yields a coffee rich in flavor and character. Each of the 12 producers who contribute to this lot uses their own micro-mill to depulp, ferment, wash, and sun-dry their coffee, preserving its unique qualities. Once processed, the dried parchment is delivered to Galguera Gomez, a family-owned export company in Oaxaca that pays the farmers higher incomes for the quality of their beans and ensures traceability.

Tasting Notes

Mexico Pluma Santa Cruz is a delightfully smooth, medium-bodied coffee with indulgent tasting notes of brown sugar, cherry, and chocolate mousse. Its sweetness is perfectly balanced by a bright, refreshing acidity, and the flavors unfold beautifully in the cup, creating a luxurious experience however you choose to brew it.

For those who love a coffee that’s both comforting and complex, Mexico Pluma Santa Cruz offers an unforgettable journey in every sip.

Sustainability and Tradition

At Blossom Coffee Roasters, we are committed to working with farmers who value both quality and sustainability. The 12 producers who grow Mexico Pluma Santa Cruz embody this commitment, using traditional, eco-friendly methods to cultivate their coffee in harmony with the region’s natural biodiversity.

By partnering with Galguera Gomez, a company dedicated to improving farmers' livelihoods, we help ensure that these farmers are fairly compensated for their hard work, all while supporting environmentally conscious growing practices.

Brew Recommendations

We recommend brewing Mexico Pluma Santa Cruz as a pour-over to highlight its complex flavors and bright acidity. Always start with a 1:16 (medium-ground coffee to water) ratio to control your variables and adjust based on your preference. Our light-roasted coffees should always be rich & sweet, never sour or bitter!

This single-origin also performs beautifully as an espresso, where its rich chocolate and brown sugar notes shine. However you choose to brew it, this coffee is versatile enough to suit any method, delivering a delicious cup every time.
