Ecuador Loja Typica Mejorado

About This Coffee

Ecuador's coffee scene is rapidly gaining recognition, particularly in the southern Loja region, known for its high altitudes and diverse microclimates. This lot features the intriguing 'Typica Mejorado' varietal, which, despite its name, is genetically closer to a Bourbon x Ethiopian Landrace cross. It's celebrated for its exceptional sweetness and complex fruit characteristics. Expect bright notes of red apple and cherry, underscored by a rich brown sugar sweetness and a hint of lively orange zest. The processing, often meticulous washed or honey methods, contributes to a refined cup with a notably silky, smooth body. It represents the exciting potential of Ecuadorian specialty coffee.
