Mexico Finca Fatima Natural HG 2025

Finca Fatima Natural Coffee from Veracruz

Finca Fatima has been in the family of Ernesto Perez and his sister, Givette Perez Orea, for nearly a century. Today, as third-generation producers, the siblings continue the legacy of their 20-hectare farm in Coatepec, Veracruz—one of Mexico’s oldest and most historic coffee-growing regions, where Arabica coffee was first introduced to the country. At 1,250 masl, the estate is dedicated to cultivating premium lots of Criolla, Typica, and Geisha, with a focus on careful agronomy and innovative processing.

Natural Processing

Unlike Finca Fatima’s washed lots, this natural process coffee is dried in its cherry, allowing the fruit’s sugars to infuse the beans during fermentation and drying. This method produces a cup with layered complexity and striking fruit character. Expect vibrant notes of strawberry, tropical fruit, cane sugar, and lemon. With its striking cup profile, this coffee exemplifies the farm’s commitment to excellence and innovation, delivering a distinctive profile that stands out on the cupping table.

Seed to Cup at Finca Fatima

Finca Fatima is a rare example of a fully integrated coffee estate. As coffee roasters themselves, Ernesto and Givette oversee every stage of the journey—from cultivation and processing to roasting and brewing. This seed-to-cup approach means that every agronomic decision is made with the final cup in mind, resulting in coffees that are as technically precise as they are expressive of Veracruz’s terroir. Beyond coffee, the farm also showcases the region’s biodiversity through honey production, citrus groves, and agrotourism, offering visitors a firsthand look at sustainable farming in action.

Mexican Green Coffee

Mexico’s coffee story stretches back to the late 18th century, with Veracruz among the first regions where Arabica took root. Over the centuries, the state has become synonymous with quality and tradition, producing coffees with balance, sweetness, and complexity. Despite challenges ranging from leaf rust to market fluctuations, Mexican producers like those at Finca Fátima continue to push boundaries—experimenting with processing techniques and investing in specialty production to elevate Mexico’s reputation on the global stage. With lots like this Natural from Veracruz, Mexico’s place in the specialty coffee conversation is stronger than ever.
