jose jijon's putushio mejorado is a washed typica from the loja region of ecuador, processed to highlight the variety's clean, delicate character. in the cup it shows red apple acidity, jasmine, and broader floral tones, the kind of brightness and clarity that washed processing tends to preserve. typica is a lower-yielding variety known for nuanced sweetness, and loja's high-altitude growing conditions support that complexity. to get the most from it, use a pour-over or filter method that keeps the cup transparent, a medium-fine grind, water around 9395°c, and a steady controlled pour.
