About: Founded in 2015 by Aliss Hartmann, Finca Momoto is a new branch on the storied Hartmann family tree. Aliss and her four siblings grew up at Finca Hartmann, playing amongst the coffee trees and climbing on bags of stored parchment at the mill.

As her own children, Giuliana and Giuseppe grew up, she wanted them to have a similar childhood to herself. She purchased Finca Momoto to teach them the value of the land, respect for nature, and to share with them the same love and passion for coffee that her parents shared with her.
