From the heart of Mexico to your roaster

Specialty green coffee micro-lots from Mexico, hand-selected for artisanal roasters across Europe. Full traceability, transparent pricing, from a single bag.

Mexico: one of specialty coffee's best-kept secrets

Mexico is the world's eleventh-largest coffee producer and home to some of the most distinctive varieties on earth: Pluma Hidalgo, Geisha, Bourbon and Typica grow between 900 and 2,000 metres above sea level, in microclimates shaped by the Sierra Madre and active volcanoes.

Five main regions — Chiapas, Oaxaca, Veracruz, Puebla and Guerrero — offer a diversity of terroirs hard to match in any single origin. From chocolatey, nutty profiles to complex cups with notes of tropical fruit, flowers and panela.

Yet most of this extraordinary coffee is lost to the commodity market or never reaches European roasters. Nativa exists to change that.

Why we do this

Nativa was born from a conviction: Mexican specialty coffee deserves a place in Europe's cups. Not as an exotic curiosity, but as an origin as respected as Ethiopia, Colombia or Kenya.

We know first-hand the reality of Mexican coffee communities: producers growing exceptional varieties above 1,500 metres, yet selling at commodity prices because they have no access to the international specialty market.

We are not a large importer. We are a small but honest bridge between Mexican producers who deserve better prices and European roasters searching for exceptional coffees with a real story behind them.

We are building something different. Every lot we select will have full traceability, a transparent price, and the real story of the person who grew it. Because transparency is not marketing — it is respect.
