Coffee grown with passion, meant to be shared

The tradition dates back more than 120 years, when the coffee-growing estate was established on the fertile lands above Veracruz. Growing and roasting premium Arabica beans in one of the world’s richest coffee-growing regions is our legacy here at the 1888 Coffee Company. We use natural cultivation methods and work with a licensed Q Grader to ensure quality and flavor. It is our pleasure to share these exceptional coffees with you.

Hand-cultivated and roasted to perfection

Grown in the volcanic soils of Citlaltépetl, or Pico de Orizaba, under a canopy of old-growth shade trees

High above the busy port city of Veracruz, Mexico in the acclaimed Huatusco region, you will find one of North America’s oldest family-owned and operated coffee plantations, established more than 120 years ago.

The Ruiz Galindo Family Coffee Roasting Estate provides premium coffees:

Grown using only natural methods and selectively harvested by hand

100% Arabica, medium roasted

Favored throughout Mexico and Europe for decades

Drying, milling, roasting and packaging is all done at our facility in Veracruz, Mexico. Most other coffees are processed from beans purchased from large coffee exchanges and transported hundreds (if not thousands) of miles.

All our coffee is hand-curated and shipped fresh from the source to ensure the deliciously distinctive aromas, rich colors, and sumptuous flavors.

Coffee is a passion to be shared – an art as well as an act of hospitality.” ~ Armando Ruiz Galindo, Global President
