About the farm

In the hills of Soconusco, Chiapas, shaped by rich soils and a coastal - mountain microclimate, Finca Don Jorge preserves the unique local variety of Mexican White Criollo. Grown at 430 meters above sea level under a regenerative agroforestry system that protects native cedar, primavera, and oak, the farm carefully ferments and slow sun -dries the cocoa to reveal its natural delicacy and aromatic clarity.

About the Partnership

At Finca Don Jorge, innovation and care protects the genetic heritage of Mexican Criollo cocoa and the people who cultivate it. On the farm, 17 different varieties are grown and shared with neighbouring farmers, allowing this genetic diversity to strengthen in the region. Rooted in regenerative agroforestry, local employment, and strong community engagement, the farm builds a future for Mexican cocoa grounded in environmental care and social responsibility
