Producers must undertake considerable walks to reach their plots and then carry the harvested coffee back to the village for processing. The climate here is significantly warmer than in San Antonio, resulting in shorter fermentation times and quicker drying periods. Consequently, the use of poly-shade netting is recommended and frequently utilized.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/9428\/files\/DT-New-Mexico-Santa-Cruz-Ozolotepec-Espresso-Website-2026-07.jpg?v=1789655287\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAbout the Oaxaca Region\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eCoffee has been cultivated in Mexico since the late 1700s, with production mainly on large farms until the early 20th century.

Investments in the 1970s improved the industry's infrastructure. Still, a government shift in the 1980s caused declines in quality due to the collapse of regulatory institutions. In response, coffee producers in Oaxaca, Chiapas, and Veracruz formed collectives to manage mills and establish buyer relationships, enhancing quality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/9428\/files\/DT-New-Mexico-Santa-Cruz-Ozolotepec-Espresso-WF-2026-Website-1350x1080.jpg?v=1789655287\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Detour Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"300g \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":62364392817010,"sku":"DCS1075","price":28.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1Kg \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":62364392882546,"sku":"DCS4073","price":90.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.27Kg \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":62364392915314,"sku":"DCS6073","price":184.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/9428\/files\/SO_CoffeeBag_SantaCruzOzolotepec.png?v=1789654892","url":"https:\/\/detourcoffee.com\/products\/mexico-santa-cruz-ozolotepec-espresso","provider":"Detour Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
