Nestled in the heart of Mexico’s cloud forest corridor—the very region where the first Arabica varieties were introduced to the country—Finca Fátima sits at 1,250 meters above sea level. Spanning 20 hectares, the farm is fully dedicated to the cultivation of specialty coffee, with a deep commitment to sustainability, biodiversity, and quality.
Finca Fátima cultivates a diverse range of exceptional
Arabica varieties, including Marsellesa, Caturra, Garnica, Geisha,
and Typica.
In 2019, 2021, 2024, and 2025, Finca Fátima was awarded the
Cup of Excellence, with scores of 89.41, 87.17, 87.55, and 88.04
respectively, competing with the Criolla Typica variety from
Coatepec and the Gesha variety, originally from Africa and
established in the region for over 30 years.
The post-harvest processes carried out at the farm range from
traditional washed and natural methods to more complex and
experimental techniques, such as semi-washed, honey, prolonged
fermentation, anaerobic, and carbonic maceration processes. Each
process is carefully designed to highlight the unique
characteristics of each variety and lot, delivering exceptional
flavors in every cup.
Beyond its commitment to quality, Finca Fátima plays a vital role in regional biodiversity conservation. The plantation is home to more than 15 fruit tree species, over 10 varieties of orchids—including the iconic vanilla—and a wide array of birds, mammals, and beneficial insects. The land also shelters two natural springs, endemic flowers, and ancient tree ferns, all native to the mesophilic mountain forest ecosystem.
A proud, women-led farm (Givette Pérez) with nearly a century of family legacy, Finca Fátima stands as a model of sustainable, regenerative agriculture. Chemical inputs are avoided entirely; instead, the farm focuses on rebuilding soil health through the production and application of organic fertilizers made on-site.
Finca Fátima is more than just a farm—it is a living ecosystem, a legacy of strong women, and a source of some of Mexico’s most remarkable coffees.
