{"product_id":"la-papaya-washed","title":"La Papaya Typica Washed","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHacienda La Papaya is located in Ecuador’s southern Loja region, where high elevations, cool temperatures, and a dry rainforest climate create ideal conditions for growing specialty coffee. Due to the area’s limited rainfall, the farm uses a precise drip irrigation system that promotes healthy root development and ensures consistent cherry ripening throughout the season. Over the past decade, La Papaya has earned a reputation for innovation and attention to detail, with a strong focus on preserving the genetic integrity of traditional varieties like Typica, even maintaining a dedicated seed garden to propagate clean, true-to-type plant stock for future harvests.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis washed Typica lot is a standout example of that commitment to quality and process. After careful hand harvesting, the cherries are depulped and demucilaged before undergoing a 15-hour fermentation in fresh water—a step that enhances clarity and sweetness in the cup. The coffee is then moved to greenhouse-style drying rooms, where temperature and humidity are closely controlled to ensure slow, even drying over several days. The result is a beautifully clean and balanced cup with a silky mouthfeel and layered complexity. Expect delicate notes of ripe pear, floral oolong tea, and a soft honeyed sweetness that lingers through the finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ecuador","offers":[{"title":"Case (6 x 12 oz)","offer_id":41894906626187,"sku":null,"price":103.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5 lb","offer_id":41894906658955,"sku":null,"price":54.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 lb","offer_id":41894906691723,"sku":null,"price":108.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/7861\/2107\/files\/Blanchards_12oz_Product_LaPapayaTypicaWashed.png?v=1773620280","url":"https:\/\/wholesale.blanchardscoffee.com\/products\/la-papaya-washed","provider":"Blanchard's Coffee Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
