Collection: Miguel Castelán Valdés
Miguel Castelán Valdés grows coffee at Rancho Viejo, 1,500 meters above sea level in Tlaltetela, in the Huatusco region of Veracruz. The farm holds Rainforest Alliance, C.A.F.E. Practices and 4C certifications. Rows follow the contour of the slope, soil and leaf analyses decide what each block is fed, and no herbicide touches the farm. In 2020 Rancho Viejo joined the Por Más Café program of Exportadora de Café California and renewed its plantations with rust-resistant varieties. In 2024 Miguel placed sixth in the Cup of Excellence Mexico experimental category.
