History
Los Altos de Chiapas is a region predominantly inhabited by Tzeltal indigenous communities, where the specialty coffee industry is in awe of the coffee grown in this region, favored by the advantage of its elevated altitudes.
This coffee bears the name Bankilal, inspired by an esteemed figure in Tzeltal culture. Bankilal symbolises the responsibility of the older sibling, who selflessly cares for the younger ones, prioritising the community's well-being above their own interests.
