Lot GNEP-10: BATISTA NATURAL FINCA SANTA TERESA
FINCA SANTA TERESA
Finca Santa Teresa (FST) is a UTZ certified specialty coffee farm and mill nestled high in the cloud forest near the Volcan Baru. We produce a range of specialty coffees, including Geisha, Caturra and Catuai varietals. Our coffees are regular finalists in the Best of Panama competition.
Our terroir – rich volcanic soils, high altitude, weather systems driven by the Pacific and Atlantic and a series of ridges and valleys – drives coffee redolent of honeysuckle, lychee and strawberries.
All our coffee is carefully handpicked and processed at our mill which is located on the main, larger farm that comprises FST. The smaller farm – Batista – is a short drive away and is separated by virgin forest and our water source, La Llorona.
We offer a wide range of washed, honey and natural green beans from farm. Our raised drying beds are carefully tendered each harvest and some of the finest coffees we produce are honey and natural processing. Finca Santa Teresa has a guest cabin on which offers visitors the opportunity to wake up to a sunrise, overlooking the rolling clouds over La Amistad National Park and, in the distance, neighbouring Costa Rica.
At FST we pride ourselves on producing the very finest coffee in a sustainable manner, environmentally and socially. Our farm is UTZ certified meaning we comply with their sustainable standards and implement better farming practices, with respect for people and the planet. We have built our own school for the young children of families who work on the farm each harvest and we work with the charity Casa Esperanza. Casa Esperanza Panama provides opportunities for children and teenagers by providing access to health, nutrition and training services as well as teachers for schools. In turn the goal is to empower the children to educate their families and give them the skills to gain meaningful employment in the future to support their family. In addition to this we work with the local hospital in Volcan, ensuring regular medical visits and providing health education for the staff. Our staff have also formed their own football team that is regularly placed at the top of the local league!
