ricardo vargas is a typica from the pichincha region of ecuador, processed using the washed method. washed processing strips the cherry before fermentation, which tends to produce cleaner, more defined cup clarity, and that shows here in the floral character: jasmine, hibiscus, and a delicate florality that runs throughout. typica is one of the older arabica varieties, generally lower-yielding but prized for cup quality. brew it with a filter method, pour-over or v60, using water around 90-93°c to keep those lighter floral tones intact rather than pushing bitterness. grind medium-fine and aim for a 3-minute draw-down.
