Husband and wife duo Ellen and Stuart Prentice oversee a 19-hectare farm, encompassing a multitude of microclimates. Ellen inherited the farm from her father in the early ’70s, falling in love with the coffee growing process and planting more and more on the land. Together with their daughter Ashley, they’ve established state-of-the-art processing equipment for their farm, Finca de Dios (Farm of the Gods). Over the last 14 years we’ve partnered with the Prentice family, we’ve witnessed inspiring innovation. Ellen handles coffee growing with her studies in agronomy, Stuart continues to make upgrades to the farm, like installing a mechanical washer that utilizes less water, and Ashley focuses on selling the green coffee while raising her young child. Despite extreme weather plaguing the region, resulting in a smaller yield as well as labor shortages, the Prentice family continues to produce consistently high-quality coffee. In this year’s coffee, expect notes of cacao, orange, and agave.
