About Finca El Quetzal in Nicaragua
Nestled in the central highlands of Nicaragua's renowned Matagalpa coffee region, Finca El Quetzal boasts a legacy of excellence spanning decades. A pioneer in sustainable coffee cultivation, our estate was founded on the innovative practices of Dr. Frank Bendaña, Nicaragua's first Ph.D. Agronomist. His groundbreaking work in sun-grown coffee during the 1960s and 70s revolutionized the industry, paving the way for our unwavering commitment to quality and environmental stewardship. Today, we proudly carry on this tradition at EQ, continuing to produce exceptional coffee that reflects our deep respect for the land and the art of cultivation.
