Finca La Mandarina (El Morito)
This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.
The story
The Flores family has been involved in coffee production since the 1970s. In 2009, patriarch Faustino Flores established Finca El Morito after relocating to San Ignacio, Cajamarca. The estate is now managed by subsequent generations, including Anthony Vasquez, who represents the fourth generation of producers.
Challenges
The farm operates in a region where quality must be built slowly over generations and refined through intent, navigating the complexities of northern Cajamarca's terrain.
Innovations
The farm maintains organic certification as part of its commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability. They also operate as direct exporters of their own specialty coffee.
Published coffees linked to this farm
For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.
