Pepe Jijon 100g

This washed Typica Mejorado uses Pepe's signature TyOxidator method: open-air aerobic fermentation, 48 hours sealed in mucilage, then a slow 20-day sun-dry.

Pepe, the first Latin American to solo climb the Seven Summits, built Finca Soledad into a community farm that employs single mothers, earning him a Sprudgie Award in 2023.

In the cup: hibiscus and honeydew, an Arnold Palmer-like sweetness, finishing juicy and clean.
