Managed with meticulous care, the farm focuses on Typica Mejorado, a variety renowned for its aromatic complexity and refined cup quality. The high altitude, cool nights, and warm days allow slow cherry maturation, developing layered floral and fruit notes. This region is emerging as one of Ecuador’s most promising specialty coffee origins. Processing Method Features: Ecuador Fincas del Putushio is a traditional washed coffee. The coffee cherries are picked and depulped on the same day, then left overnight in dry parchment. Afterwards, they are washed in fresh spring water and slowly dried on covered raised beds for thirty days. It’s worth noting that Typica Mejorado is a very unique variety primarily grown in Ecuador. Recent genetic testing by World Coffee Research demonstrated that the variety is a hybrid of Bourbon and Ethiopian Heirloom or Landrace-however, it’s not a descendant of the Typica lineage.
