He was a difficult child to raise, because he didn't like to eat at all. He only wanted to run through the fields, explore nature and, mind you, feed little animals. “As a child, I already knew that a rabbit, a goat, and a pig must eat differently, and I would scold whoever gave them food without taking that into account.” He, however, was a picky eater. Who would have said, twenty-odd years later, that he would have a shop of food made by himself. We are talking about Nicolau Pons (Pollença, 1994), founder of Sa Cabreta, an organic farm and artisanal cheese factory located in the Serra de Tramuntana, in Pollença. One of his aunts, Cati Pons, tells us about him – his mother is one of four sisters and two brothers!

Nicolau Pons Llinàs, a Jesuit from Artà, has died at the age of 98. In April 2024, he received the ARA Baleares at the Monti-sion monastery, with the serenity with which he faced the end: "Death doesn't frighten me. I can already be thankful for having reached 97." That conversation, which we now revisit as a tribute, traces a life marked by the Spanish Civil War, exile in Latin America, his sympathy for liberation theology, the conflict with the Society of Jesus, and his courageous denunciation of abuses within the Church.
