About this coffee

A rare Ecuadorian Mejorada with vivid citrus sweetness, delicate florals and a silky, structured finish. Mirra's tasting notes bring together bright Sumo mandarin, vanilla orchid and the comforting sweetness of graham cracker.

Details

  • Producer: Mery Garcito
  • Farm: Finca La Bendición
  • Region: La Papaya, Saraguro, Ecuador
  • Altitude: 1,900 masl
  • Variety: Mejorada
  • Process: Washed

Producer and place

Mery Garcito produces coffee in La Papaya's distinctive high-altitude microclimate in southern Ecuador. Careful cherry selection and washed processing preserve the variety's floral character and clear citrus structure.

Variety

Mejorada is a rare variety mainly grown in Ecuador and is also commonly called Mejorado or Typica Mejorado. Despite that name, genetic testing identifies it as a Bourbon variety crossed with an Ethiopian landrace rather than a Typica selection.

Process

Ripe cherries were hand-picked and floated to remove defects, then depulped on the day of harvest. The coffee was dry-fermented for 32 hours, washed and dried on raised beds.

In the cup

Expect bright Sumo mandarin acidity, soft vanilla-orchid florals and a sweet graham-cracker finish.

Coffee Variety

In this coffee

  • Graham Cracker
  • Vanilla Orchid
  • Sumo Mandarin

About this variety

Often presents as a bright, elegant coffee with floral aromas, tea-like delicacy and stone-fruit or citrus sweetness. Roaster descriptions often mention white peach, oolong, jasmine, citrus and blossom. Treat this as a useful pattern, not a promise: farm, process and roast still shape the final cup.

Why this one is different
  • Ecuador
  • Loja
  • Washed

Ecuador is the main reference point for Mejorado. Roaster descriptions for Ecuadorian examples often mention white peach, citrus, florals and tea-like notes, especially in washed coffees, while natural and producer-specific processes can add riper fruit or spice. Farm and processing remain more predictive than the name alone.

Washed processing can make acidity and variety character easier to read, although fermentation and drying choices still matter.

A little background

Mejorado is widely associated with Ecuador and is reported as being grown mainly there. Farms such as Finca Soledad cultivate it at high elevation alongside varieties including Gesha and Sidra.

Identification note The common Typica Mejorado name should not be read as proof of Typica ancestry.

Classification Reported Bourbon × Ethiopian landrace cross

Technical lineage Reviewed genetic reporting describes mixed Bourbon and Ethiopian landrace ancestry rather than a Typica selection.

Variety is a guide, not a flavour guarantee. Lot notes are more specific.
