/Sounds like "FEEN" (as in "feet") + "kah" (as in "car")/
A rural property dedicated to growing coffee, plantain, cacao, or other crops, particularly in Colombia, Costa Rica, and Venezuela. In Colombia a finca cafetera in the Coffee Region is almost a cultural landmark. The word also carries a sense of family heritage and slower, simpler country living away from the city.
“He has a coffee farm in the Coffee Region, he's had it for years.”
“We spent the holidays at my grandparents' farm, no wifi and plenty of open land.”

To get a serious dressing-down, called out harshly and directly in Mexico. When someone bajas el cirio on you, the person in front is furious and not holding back a single word. Usually comes from a boss, a parent, or anyone with authority over you.
