Driftaway Coffee presents Ecuador Finca Hakuna Matata Typica Mejorado, an expressive high elevation Typica Mejorado from Finca Hakuna Matata in Ecuador. The farm is located in La Perla, Nanegal, in the Pichincha region and is operated by Henry Gaibor and Verena Blasser. This lot uses a washed processing method and comes from 1300 to 1350 meters above sea level, a combination that tends to yield clean clarity and pronounced character.

From the cupping notes, it tastes like berry, lemon, and cane sugar, with a mouth coating yet bright texture and a lemony finish. The cupping score of 86.88 reflects a well balanced cup with clarity and nuanced fruit expression.
