Cafetos de Segovia

In the high altitude regions of Cartago, between 1,450 and 1,750 meters above sea level, Fátima Micromill stands as a symbol of heritage reimagined for the future.

Operated by the Facusse family, third-generation coffee growers, the project was born from a vision to go beyond farming and create a vertically integrated, specialty-driven coffee enterprise.

In 2020, they established their own micro-mill to process coffees grown across their farms in Tobosi and Higuito, bringing full traceability and control to every lot while honoring five decades of family legacy.

​

The farms span over 100 hectares and cultivate more than 280,000 trees, with a rich varietal lineup that includes Geisha, Heirloom, Villa Sarchí, Marsellesa, Bourbon, and experimental lots of Kenyan, Rwandan, and Panamanian strains.

Fátima is known for its diverse and innovative processing techniques, from classic naturals and honeys to carbonic maceration and anaerobic fermentation.

These processes are crafted with an oenological mindset, yielding complex profiles that meet the demands of modern specialty markets.

​

Environmental stewardship is central to their model. Coffee is grown under shade trees, and processing is done with minimal water usage, recirculating and reducing environmental impact.

By composting waste and avoiding deforestation, the family ensures their coffees are not only high in quality, but low in ecological footprint.

Beyond sustainability, their operation supports over 100 seasonal workers, promotes fair pricing, and invests in agronomic excellence through a year-round in-house agronomist.

​

What drives Fátima Micromill is more than just the pursuit of quality; it’s the chance to share a piece of Costa Rican land and culture with the world. Every exported lot carries with it the flavor of elevation, care, and craftsmanship.

As global demand grows for responsible and distinctive coffees, Fátima aims to lead with transparency, taste, and a commitment to long-term sustainability.
