Don Balbino Ramírez
Mr. Balbino Ramírez Flores was born in the state of Oaxaca, in the Mixteca region. He began his journey through the world of coffee more than six decades ago. In 1959, he arrived to the state of Jalisco to share his knowledge with the emerging coffee producers from the Sierra Madre Occidental, in the Municipality of Talpa de Allende. Working together with regional coffee farmers, Don Balbino contributed enormously to the improvement of their plantations. He introduced the wet and dry processing techniques, as well as the roasting process. He also created several Cooperative Societies and Producers Unions which had a very positive impact on the quality of life of coffee growers.
With a vast career, Don Balbino has designed and executed projects that have positioned the Mexican coffee in the world scene.
Indisputably, Don Balbino is one of the most important personalities in the coffee industry in Jalisco. Due to his dedication, passion and service vocation, with admiration and respect he’s called ‘Coffee Master and Friend”.
The Coffee Cathedral
The Coffee Cathedral exists due to the efforts of hundreds of Mexican coffee farmers, the vision, generosity and hard work of Don Balbino and his family, and the endurance and passion of the workforce who put their all into this project.
The materials used to build the Cathedral are entirely from the region. Likewise, only local workers collaborated in its edification.
