PROCESSING

Washed : Ripe cherries are hand picked and in a siphon tank, separation between ripe and floats are done. After the cherries are pulped to remove the skin and most of the fruit flesh, coffee is pulped in tanks with water to be fermented. After pulping, the beans are thoroughly washed with clean water to remove any remaining mucilage and debris. Beans are spread thin in patios, exposed to sunlight until 11-12% moisture is reached. This coffee is then milled for the parchment layer and silverskin to be removed.
