Maputo

Finca Maputo was named after the city where Verena and Henry met for the first time when they were working for Doctors without Borders in Mozambique. After many years of work in West Africa, the couple moved to Ecuador, Henry’s home country, where they opened a clinic just North of Quito.

It was soon after moving back to Ecuador that Verena and Henry started taking interest in growing coffee, and after the clinic was well established in 2011 they began with Finca Maputo, which is now one of the best exponents of Specialty coffee in the country. Their methodical approach to farming has earned them recognition in the national and international market having won many prices.

The farm is located on the western foothills of the Andes, 2 hours North West from Quito.  It sits between 1300 and 1400m.a.s.l and its unique climate surrounded by protected cloud forests makes it an ideal place to produce high-quality coffees.
