From Moxie:
 
"Angel and his family have dedicated their lives to producing coffee in the Saraguro region for about 12 years in the valley of La Papaya. Four years ago, Angel began planting his own coffee plants at Linda Mirada, and this is his second harvest.
 
He currently grows Sidra, Typica Mejorado, and San Salvador. We were lucky enough to be connected to Angel through one of our staff members, Ana, who grew up in Ecuador before moving to Phoenix.
 
This washed Typica Mejorado is picked, floated, and pulped. After pulping, it’s fermented with its own mucilage for 24 hours. After that, it’s washed and dried for 22 days under shade. 
 
The coffee is a great representation of a clean washed coffee with a little twist (the mucilage fermentation). This little added step contributes a boost in acidity and sweetness to the cup that we love."
