Finca El Morito was founded by the patriarch of the Flores family, Faustino Flores, in 2009. With a passion for innovation and a focus on quality, the Flores family have steadily improved over the years. They are a close knit family and community and the second and third generations have progressed and expanded on Faustino's work to bring the family estate to where it is today.
This lot is produced by one of the managers within Finca El Morito, Lenin Flores. Lenin is responsible for quality control across all the lots that are produced by the farm, but he is also a producer himself. Lenin is a third generation coffee grower, and has focused his experience on specialty coffees. His skills with roasting and cupping coffee have allowed him to be an example to his peers and community.
Whole beans or pre-ground?
Coffee deteriorates much faster once it is ground, making whole beans the ideal way to purchase coffee. If you don't have a grinder though, all good!
