Ecuador, Finca Soledad

Country: Ecuador, Imbabura

Farm: Finca Soledad

Variety: Sidra

Process: Wave natural XTD

Altitude: 1515masl

Producer: Pepe Jijon

CUP PROFILE:

Tropical fruit punch with flavours like pineapple, very juicy, sweet, and complex, with a long-lasting finish of berry jam.

Process method: This coffee undergoes a 12-day fermentation using ripe cherries at 22 Brix. The cherries are then slow-dried in a dark room for 40 days, allowing the natural sugars and complex flavors to fully develop. The result is a cup with deep, layered flavors, highlighting the fruit's natural sweetness. Expect a juicy coffee with vibrant tropical flavors.

Finca Soledad is located in Ecuador’s Intag Valley, surrounded by native trees in a biodynamic ecosystem. Managed by mountaineer-turned-coffee-producer Pepe Jijon, the 120-hectare farm dedicates 8 hectares to coffee varieties like Typica Mejorado, Sidra, and Geisha. Despite numerous challenges, Pepe’s dedication to sustainability and nature-driven processing techniques has earned Finca Soledad global recognition in the specialty coffee industry.

Pepe’s journey began after a life-changing accident when he transitioned from climbing the world’s highest peaks to cultivating world-class coffee. Finca Soledad now thrives with a strong commitment to the environment, where Pepe carefully listens to nature to guide his innovative fermentation and drying processes. The farm produces coffees with complex, vibrant profiles, including those featured in World Coffee Competitions.
