Order coffee Discover Pueblo Chico

Coffee, art, and a family farm.

Grown at Finca Querencia, Pueblo Chico brings together a family’s coffee-growing tradition and an artistic vision shaped by the same land. The farm grows the coffee, inspires the art, and welcomes people for tattoo stays—a shared place for creativity, ritual, and rest.

Costa Rica / Finca la Querencia

A quieter place for ritual and rest.

Finca Querencia is a working family farm in San Luis de Monteverde, Costa Rica, bringing together coffee, gardens, animals, and life close to the cloud forest.

Tattoo stays on the farm bring together tattooing, healthy organic food, forest walks, and time to rest. Available now, these experiences are in their early days and arranged personally with each guest.
