Finca Momoto
The Momoto farm, owned by Aliss, sister of Ratibor Hartmann, is located in the picturesque Rio Sereno area near the Panama-Costa Rica border, close to the La Amistad National Park.
The name "Momoto" refers to the local family of motmots, birds that nest on the farm. Aliss, who handles finances for the Hartmann family farm, has owned Momoto for 9 years. After years of neglect, the farm has undergone significant restoration – a new cabin for cherry pickers and African drying beds with shading allow for slower, more precise coffee drying.
At Momoto, Aliss grows exclusive varieties, such as Laurina, various original Ethiopian varieties, Maragogipe, and, most notably, the highly valued Geisha.
Geisha Variety
Being a coffee producer in Panama and not growing the legendary Geisha variety is almost unthinkable. Although Aliss focuses mainly on original Ethiopian varieties (which also include Geisha), the "Panama Geisha" remains the most intense flavor experience of the entire harvest. This lot was processed using the natural process this January. During cuppings, we were captivated by its aroma reminiscent of cotton candy, along with notes of tea rose and tropical fruit.
Why capsules?
We always want you to enjoy drinking our coffee. And we wish to celebrate everyone involved in the journey from the farm to the cup. With our capsules we just manage that. We carefully pick coffee for our capsules from the farmers and we pay them fairly so they can continue to produce such wonderful cofffees. Our coffee capsules are made of lignin (a substance derived from wood bark and a waste product of the paper processing industry) so then you can easily compost them .

Our capsules were developed specifically for industrial and home composting.
How to brew it?
In this section, you would normally read steps how to brew your coffee. With our capsules this problem is solved. The coffee is already ground and ready in the pods, so you dont need to worry about it (if you dont wish so). The steps are pretty simple: put it in, press it, drink it.
Our capsules fit in all Nespresso coffee machines. If you do feel like you want to play around with the recipes please chose Morning machines for that. Morning coffee maker allows you to change temperature, pressure and other variables. We also will share with you how we brew it in the roastery.
