Region: Santa Clara, Renacimiento , Chiriqui Elevation: 1500 masl About: Founded in 2015 by Aliss Hartmann, Finca Momoto is a new branch on the storied Hartmann family tree. Aliss and her four siblings grew up at Finca Hartmann, playing amongst the coffee trees and climbing on bags of stored parchment at the mill. As adults, the Hartmann children each took on roles at Finca Hartmann, with Aliss managing the administrative side of the business. As her own children, Giuliana and Giuseppe, grew up, she wanted them to have a similar childhood to her own. She purchased Finca Momoto to teach them the value of the land, respect for nature, and to share the same love and passion for coffee that her parents had shared with her. Aliss applies an environmentally sustainable approach to coffee production, with most of the coffee from Finca Momoto processed using the natural method, reducing the need for significant water use. This naturally processed Geisha was grown on the Camino section of the farm, an area that is fast becoming one of our favourites and consistently produces some of the most delicious coffees each year.
