Sourced from the legendary Pepe Jijon at Finca Soledad, this "Superlight" expression of the 406° roast is a technical marvel designed for the absolute purist. While the temperature profile reaches 406°F, Traffic has meticulously managed the development time to maintain a "Superlight" classification, prioritizing high-toned aromatics and ethereal clarity. Jijon, a world-class mountaineer whose approach to coffee is described as mythical, utilizes his proprietary Wave Washed process. This complex method involves shifting the coffee through various temperature zones and refrigerated tanks to yield a cup of profound complexity. Expect an experience defined by its crystalline structure, where the signature Sidra notes of Kalamansi and elderflower are presented with vivid, tea-like transparency. This is a scarce, high-concept commodity that requires precise brewing and a patient rest period to truly shine. You may want to secure this rare Ecuadorian treasure to experience the pinnacle of modern processing before the season closes.

Our Coffee Addicts Promise
We're passionate about fresh, flavourful coffee and we know you are too. For the best taste, enjoy your coffee within approximately 6 weeks of the roast date.
Coffee naturally oxidizes slowly over time, but it can still be enjoyed beyond this window. Any beans older than six weeks from roast are clearly marked and automatically discounted, giving you a great value on quality coffee.
