The anaerobic washed process builds aromatic intensity while maintaining clear separation between the fruit, florality, and acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Pillcocaja \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePillcocaja is a seven-hectare coffee farm in the Yunguilla Valley of Azuay, Ecuador. Established in 2008, the project began with sugarcane production before shifting its focus to specialty coffee in 2013. Coffee is cultivated at approximately 1,650–1,700 masl beneath mature native faique trees, with mountain springs supplying water to the property.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAna María Crespo works alongside Nicolás Crespo at Pillcocaja, where the team cultivates several varieties across separated farm lots. Post-harvest work is supported by an on-site wet mill for sorting and washing, along with raised-bed drying infrastructure monitored for temperature and humidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVariety\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypica is one of the foundational Arabica lineages and a historically important variety throughout the Americas. It is a tall, relatively low-yielding plant with strong cup-quality potential, though it is also highly susceptible to major coffee diseases. In this lot, Typica provides a clean framework for the green-grape acidity, pear sweetness, and geranium-like florality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProcessing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn anaerobic washed process combines fermentation in a sealed, oxygen-restricted environment with a washed finish. The fermentation stage can increase aromatic intensity and fruit expression, while removing the remaining fruit material before drying supports clarity and defined acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this coffee, that combination keeps the green grape and pear distinct while presenting the geranium note as a clear floral aromatic rather than a heavy fermentation character.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hydrangea Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"8oz (227g) - 8\/9","offer_id":55887922102594,"sku":"TPYICA-RC-ANAEROBIC-WASHED-PILLCOCAJA-8OZ-0809","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/6887\/3282\/files\/Greengrape_Geranium_Pear.jpg?v=1785010642","url":"https:\/\/hydrangea.coffee\/products\/rested-typica-anaerobic-washed-pillcocaja-coffee","provider":"Hydrangea Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
