Run by José Jijón, his father Pepe, and Francisco Vintimilla, the farm focuses on growing Mejorado at the extreme altitude of 2,222 MASL. This lot, harvested in June 2026, is a pristine expression of one of our favorite varieties. The cup is crisp and refined, with notes of white flower, green apple, nectarine, and lingering peach. The acidity is high and well integrated, giving us an elegant cup with layers of florals and a long, sweet finish. This is a beautiful coffee.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is our fourth year working with the Jijón family, and it's a joy to have their coffee back on our menu.
