Overview

Maputo and Hakuna Matata farms in Pichincha, Ecuador, are owned by Henry Gaibor and his wife, Verena. The farms produce high-quality Typica variety coffee at an elevation of 1350 MASL.

The coffee undergoes a washed process with lactic fermentation, resulting in a cup with dark chocolate, toffee, and mild cooked fruit flavours, along with tangy malic acidity and candy-like sweetness.

The region's unique microclimate, with high humidity and cool nights, contributes to the coffee's exceptional quality. The Gaibors' meticulous approach to coffee production ensures some of the best coffees in Ecuador.
