the farm. This selection offers incredibly floral aromatics, citrus sweetness, a delicate body presenting an all around clean and delicious coffee. This is the 4th consecutive year we have had the opportunity to buy coffee from the Prentice family. Each year we are amazed by the clean cup and uniformity of the coffee. The practices at the farm and mill level were a true testament to this quality. Ellen and Stuart’s (husband and wife) skill sets compliment one another wonderfully; Ellen, a botanist, nurtures the farm while overseeing a very particular harvest of only the ripest cherries. Stuart, an engineer, set up brand new processing equipment. Ellen is a 3rd generation farmer and her daughter Ashley will likely one day take over as a 4th generation farmer. The farm name, “Finca de Dios” (Farm of God) derives as a commitment Ellen and Stuart have for their farmland. At Finca de Dios they concentrate their mission on the “Three Commitments” 1. Commitment to God; 2. Commitment to one another; 3. Commitment to the land, after that you are go. She is committed to taking care of the land in a sustainable manner and produces the best crops possible.

Although female coffee producers are a scarcity in Latin America, Ellen holds her own by studying hard and working very closely to the roasters who partner with her. Ellen has a degree in Botany while Stuart is an engineer by trade.

Harvested: January 2011-March 2012
