**Hacienda La Papaya** *The excellence of Ecuadorian coffee* Located at an altitude of 1900–2100 m in the Saraguro region, Hacienda La Papaya is a pioneering farm of Ecuadorian specialty coffee, founded by Juan Peña in 2010. A true research and innovation center, the finca combines scientific rigor and respect for the terroir: drip irrigation, sensor monitoring, controlled drying, and a unique genetic bank preserving the most sought-after varieties (Geisha, Sidra, Pacamara, Typica, Yellow Bourbon…). Beyond quality, Hacienda La Papaya plays an essential social role by employing the local community, especially women, and training the new generation of producers. Year after year, the result remains the same: refined, complex, and consistent coffees, regularly awarded internationally. *** *Issued from the prestigious Hacienda La Papaya, a pioneer of Ecuadorian specialty coffee.* Limited edition from Hacienda La Papaya’s “Reserve” collection, dedicated to the rarest and most carefully curated micro-lots of the estate, this coffee is crafted with masterful care. The ripest cherries are hand-picked, rigorously sorted, then subjected to a controlled washed process followed by carefully managed drying. Every step is executed with extreme precision to guarantee a coffee of exemplary purity. In the cup, this washed Typica offers a clean and elegant aromatic expression: bright notes of candied citrus, the refined sweetness of Oolong tea, and a subtle hint of almond are revealed with balance. Its delicate body, remarkable clarity, and long, harmonious finish make it a sensory experience of great finesse, a signature of Hacienda La Papaya’s incomparable know-how.
