THE GUATEMALAN SINGLE ORIGIN GROWN ON THE "FARM OF GOD"
2025 marks the 16th year Madcap has partnered with husband and wife duo Ellen and Stuart Prentice of Finca de Dios, otherwise known as Farm of God. Ellen inherited the farm from her father in the early 1970’s, falling in love with the coffee growing process and planting more and more on the land. Today, with the help of their daughter Ashley, the Prentice family oversee a 19-hectare farm encompassing a multitude of microclimates. While Ellen handles coffee growing with her studies in agronomy, Stuart continues to innovate and make upgrades to the farm, and Ashley focuses on selling the green coffee while raising her young children.
Just one example of the Prentice’s inspiring innovation is their raised bed greenhouse. Washed coffee begins drying on concrete patios, until it is moved to the greenhouse. Trays of green coffee cycle from bottom to top shelf with constant agitation to ensure even drying and consistent temperature. In this year’s harvest, expect notes of juicy nectarine, milk chocolate, and tangerine.
