Tierra Blanca is a Zapotec town nestled in the southern coastal range between Puerto Escondido and Huatulco.
Coffee cultivation here plays a vital role beyond agriculture—it supports biodiversity, preserves rainwater, and nourishes the region’s flora and fauna.
The area's unique altitude and Pacific-influenced climate contribute to the distinctive flavor and aroma of its beans. Coffees from this region are known for their signature “Pluma” profile.
