Jose Jijon & Francisco Vintimilla - Ecuador Mejorado

Summary

This coffee comes from Ecuador's Loja region, Putushio, produced by Jose Jijon, Pepe Jijon and Francisco Vintimilla at Fincas Del Putushio. The Mejorado variety (a cross-pollination of Bourbon and Ethiopian Landrace) was traditionally washed processed: depulped same day, left overnight in dry parchment, washed in fresh spring water, and slow dried on covered raised beds for thirty days. Tasting notes include red berries, delicate white florals, and a bright malic acidity reminiscent of pears, with a light body and clean finish. Extra light roast.
