Hacienda La Papaya – Typica Washed

Sourced from the Hacienda La Papaya Estate in Ecuador's Loja region, this Typica variety undergoes a washed process. Cultivated at elevations around 2,000 metres above sea level, the coffee benefits from the region's unique microclimate, enhancing its complex flavour profile and bringing out the terroir within this Ecuadorian Typica. The result is a vibrant cup featuring notes of lemon, green tea, and orange, offering a harmonious balance of sweetness and acidity.

Notes: Lemon, Green Tea, Orange

What is the roast recency?

We recommend brewing with beans that are at least two weeks off roast. All beans are roasted to peak flavour at around 8-12 weeks. We have the option to either purchase standard beans (at least 2 weeks but no longer than 6 weeks off roast), or rested beans (at least 7 weeks off roast, no longer than 12). For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.
