Founded by Juan Peña in 2010 in the southern Andean highlands of Saraguro, the farm combines scientific rigour with a deep respect for terroir: drip irrigation, sensor-based soil monitoring, agronomist-managed cultivation, and a unique genetic bank preserving the most sought-after varietals — including this rare B7 selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJuan is widely recognised as a pioneer of specialty coffee in the Saraguro region. He has won three consecutive Sprudge Notable Producer awards, and Hacienda La Papaya's portfolio of exceptional varietals — Geisha, Sidra, Typica Mejorado, and now B7 — consistently demonstrates what careful cultivation and precision processing at altitude in Ecuador can achieve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eB7 is a rare and little-documented variety cultivated at Hacienda La Papaya — one of the most unusual selections in an already exceptional collection. Its precise genetic origins remain under research, but its cup character — juicy, fruited, and silky — speaks clearly to the extraordinary growing conditions of Saraguro and Juan's meticulous varietal management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Anaerobic Natural process at Hacienda La Papaya involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🍒 Hand-picking — B7 cherries selectively harvested at peak ripeness 💧 Flotation \u0026amp; sorting — Sorted by flotation and density to ensure consistency before fermentation 🔒 Anaerobic fermentation — Whole cherries sealed in an oxygen-free environment for a precisely controlled fermentation period, building aromatic complexity and depth ☀️ Natural drying — Cherries dried whole-fruit after fermentation, allowing the sugars and fruit character to integrate fully and evenly into the bean\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sealed anaerobic fermentation is the defining step — by fermenting the whole cherry in an oxygen-free environment before natural drying, Juan builds the vivid plum and cherry fruit depth and warm chocolate complexity that define this lot, while the natural drying locks in the silky texture and vibrant juiciness that make it so elegant and compelling in the cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn elegant, fruited, and silky anaerobic natural B7 from one of Ecuador's most celebrated and internationally awarded specialty farms — juicy plum and cherry sweetness and warm chocolate depth in a vibrant, refined cup that speaks of Juan Peña's extraordinary varietal collection and meticulous processing precision.
