Our Relationship with 4th Generation Coffee Farmer Anabella and her Team: Jeff (Zoka Founder/CEO) first met Anabella through a friend in the coffee world. Since then, he's visited her farm many times. And applauded her through Santa Felisa's Cup of Excellence® wins. The cupping table at Santa Felisa Farm is one of Jeff's favorite places. (below in 2023)
Annabella and her team are meticulous with coffee. They hand pick and then hand sort each coffee cherry for quality before going to the drying deck. (photo)

The History of Santa Felisa Farm
Established in 1904, Santa Felisa has maintained the founding values of integrity, quality, loyalty and justice. The farm is now run by the fourth generation siblings under the guidance of the visionary agronomist, ecologist & Q-Grader Anabella Meneses. Anabella and her brother Antonio are multiple-time Cup of Excellence® winners, including first place for Guatemala in 2017. Anabella has a Master's Degree in Agronomy.
Its not often that I get to have a coffee with this level of flavor in the AM. If only it was cheaper, I would buy it all the time. A smashing cup of coffee. Well done.
