Subject: RE: BS: World's Best Coffee?
Coffee from the mountain slopes of western Chiapas, Mexico. I spent a few days at one of the plantations there.
I have done before, but again I will recommend the town of Tapachula for a laid-back atmosphere, few tourists and a grand climate. At one corner of the plaza is an excellent place to get fruit 'shakes' (osterizer mix, choice of familiar and unfamiliar fruits)) and enjoy the early evening. A market town, it has everything from a pizzeria to a good French restaurant. Good small hotels, but eat around as you get recommendations.
Argovia with trips to rain forest nearby.

Adjacent Guatemalan coffee has a very similar taste.

Occasionally get Ethiopian for a change.
