About This Coffee

Son of Pepe Jijon, award winning producer from Ecuador, Jose is a 19 year old aspiring producer who has a deep passion for coffee. Our third crop from Putushio with Jose, this harvest is truly special, as this Mejorado is very sweet, floral and bright with a sparkling acidity. 200G. Pickup currently unavailable at September Coffee Roastery. Fincas Del Putushio. September Coffee Roastery. 119 Iber RoadUnit 9Ottawa ON K2S 1E7Canada. About The Producer: Pepe Jijon is an inspiring producer with an inspiring farm: Finca Soledad. His Son, Jose, has been learning and working at Soledad for much of his life. His farm, San Pedro, and Francisco's farm are what make up Fincas Del Putushio. A sister farm duo creating the next evolution in coffee farming for the Jijon family. September is proud to support Jose and Pepe's hard work at Putushio. The farm is very small with limited production so we are very lucky and thankful to have some of his coffee this year. Processing: This coffee is traditional washed processed. Coffee is picked and depulped the same day, left overnight in dry parchment. Washed in fresh spring water and slow dried on covered raised beds for thirty days. Variety: Mejorado has become the gem of Ecuador. Although it’s certainly similar in name to Typica, Typica Mejorado is not related to this variety. It is now known to be a cross-pollination of Bourbon and Ethiopian Landrace. Transparency: Direct. $66 USD/KG. Roasted Costs: $85.60 USD/KG. September Coffee Company. Email Newsletter. Promotions, deals, new products and sales. Directly to your inbox.
