Fincas del Putushio
This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.
The story
Fincas del Putushio is a relatively new farm in the Loja region of Ecuador, currently managed by Jose Jijon, the son of award-winning producer Pepe Jijon. The farm is situated in an area with rugged terrain and archaeological artifacts dating back over 3,000 years, which the producers describe as a mystical and sacred environment.
Challenges
The farm is characterized by its rugged, high-altitude terrain, which presents unique conditions for coffee cultivation.
Innovations
The farm focuses on ultra-high-altitude production at 2,222 meters above sea level to develop distinct flavor profiles.
Published coffees linked to this farm
For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.
