Since 2022, Evelyn Echeverría, the visionary woman behind Mishki Yaku, has led a passionate team introducing Ecuador’s specialty coffee to European audiences and beyond. Our mission is to inspire appreciation for quality over mass production while fostering a brighter future for Ecuador.
Ecuador, a global model of biodiversity, offers ideal conditions for cultivating exceptional coffee. Yet, Ecuadorian specialty coffee remains largely unknown in Europe — a reality we are committed to changing. We believe Ecuador has preserved something invaluable that modern societies have lost: a connection to authenticity and sustainability.
Through our work, we aim to bring a piece of Ecuador to Europe, showcasing the country’s rich heritage and strong cultural roots. Every cup of Mishki Yaku coffee not only delights the senses but also tells a story of sustainable practices, biodiversity, and the hardworking people behind each bean.
As cultural ambassadors, we want to show the world that coffee can be more than a commodity; it can be a bridge between cultures, a source of empowerment, and a symbol of quality. Together, let’s embark on a journey where each sip contributes to a better world and a deeper connection to Ecuador’s extraordinary legacy.
Ecuador has the best conditions for the kind of coffee we want to make and is a model of biodiversity for the world. We truly feel that Ecuador preserved something we in modern societies have lost. We want to bring more Ecuador to Europe and show our strong connection with this beautiful country.
All aspects, from procurement to sales, are characterized by close cooperation and an open and personal approach by all stakeholders. Only together we can guarantee our customers high-quality, sustainable and socially traded specialty coffee.
We want to raise your awareness of the social and environmental impact of coffee consumption. Reflecting the complex global process of coffee consumption, fragile livelihoods in coffee countries, and the impact of coffee production and consumption on planet Earth is at the core of our small business.
We believe sustainability in coffee starts with the financial sustainability of farmers. To make a difference, we believe we must start with ourselves by creating coffee experiences that contribute to their development.
