Finca El Dorado

ChocoVilcaMundo (CVM) is an Ecuadorian agricultural company owned by Bernard Uhe and his coffee-growing family from Colombia. The management of the El Dorado and La Noria coffee farms is undertaken by the CVM family, which boasts generations of coffee growers from the province of Ibague, Colombia. In collaboration with Ecuadorians who are well-acquainted with the local terrain, they cultivate high-elevation, award-winning Arabica coffee in the Ecuadorian Andes.

Planting of the farms began in 2017.  The El Dorado Farm cultivates four varieties of coffee: Green Gesha, Wush Wush, Yellow Gesha, SL28, and is in the process of planting a fifth variety, Sidra.

The superior quality of their coffee is attributed to the high elevation, fertile soil, mineral-rich mountain water, nutrient-dense shade trees, 12 hours of sunlight throughout the year, and the application of neem and worm tea on the plants. These factors collectively enhance the vitality of the coffee plant and beans, resulting in a deliciously healthy cup of coffee.
