Process
Once the coffee cherries reach their peak ripeness, we carefully harvest them and bring them to our processing area. Here, they undergo a special fermentation process. First, they ferment whole (in the cherry) for 36 hours. Then, the pulp is removed, and the beans ferment again for an additional 48 hours. After this meticulous process, the beans are washed clean to remove any remaining fruit residue (called mucilage) and any imperfect beans. Finally, they spend 10 to 12 days drying in the warm sunshine, absorbing the sun’s natural sweetness.
