Gabriel Mathiew de Clieu, a French Naval Officer, played the vital role in the history of Mexican coffee. He managed to acquire a descendant of a coffee tree given to King Louis XIV of France, and he made it his duty to take the tree to his estate on Martinique. During the voyage, the miraculous tree survived Tunisian pirates, violent storms, dangerously covetous passengers, and not to mention, a deficit of fresh water. However, it arrived safely in Martinique where it flourished.

Mexico 'Spirit of the Aztec' Coffee
This high-grown, Mexican coffee is found in the region of Oaxaca. After harvesting, the coffee beans are wet-processed embodying nutty undertones of the soil. We medium roast the beans to produce a light bodied coffee that is winy with slight tones of chocolate and a light acidity.

All because of a Student Trip
By MFXM from Guilford, Ct. on January 29, 2012
Quite a few years ago, I chaperoned a plethora of students on a Mexican trip. Over the course of the ten days, I had developed an affinity for the coffee from the area. When i returned, I brought several pounds with me, which ran out quickly. I have been drinking Spirit of the Aztecs ever since, thanks to Coffee AM. It's up there with the best of gourmet coffees.I would recommend this item to a friend.

Excellent coffee
By Sandy from Gainesville, GA on May 30, 2011
Very smooth, light smooth chocolately blend. We use a french press and enjoy light to medium coffee beans and so far this coffee is our favorite. I usually enjoy cream and some sugar but I can enjoy this coffee black. Cream and sugar is like dessert -- a real treat! I would recommend this coffee to anyone, especially to french press. light/medium users.Pros:
Quality is very good; price is good. Ordering was very easy, shipping was very fast.SI would recommend this item to a friend.
I only order Coatepec.

I love this coffee! Other coffees I have purchased do not compare to the smoothness and richness of this coffee. This is the closest bean I have found, with the taste of a bean purchased in Mexico City that I fell in love with, which was also from the Coatepec region.I would recommend this item to a friend.
