During its colonial period, Coffee was first introduced to the Mexican state of Veracruz, from the Antilles. Mexico cultivates mostly shade-grown Arabica coffee which grows particularly well in the southern coastal regions—conditions that, in Mexico's relatively cooler climate, are favorable for higher-quality coffees. Join Mark and Wayne Armstrong of the 5 Minute History podcast who kindly shares his brief look at one of North America’s favorite legal stimulants. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!
