Washed Typica Mejorado Hacienda La Papaya, Ecuador Hacienda La Papaya has become synonymous with precision, innovation, and some of Ecuador’s most compelling coffees. Led by Juan Peña, a forward-thinking producer with a background in floriculture, the farm blends scientific rigor with a deep commitment to community, offering stable employment, sharing resources with neighbors, and continuously experimenting to improve both quality and sustainability. This washed Typica Mejorado is a clear expression of that philosophy. This variety is selected for its exceptional sweetness, clarity, and vibrant citrus character. It is a demanding plant to cultivate, but in Juan’s hands, it consistently delivers coffees of remarkable structure and balance. In the cup, this lot is bright and refined, with notes of lemon bars and white peach up front, supported by a deep dark chocolate finish. Clean, sweet, and expressive, it highlights both the potential of Typica Mejorado and the meticulous work behind every harvest at Hacienda La Papaya.
