About the Process

Carbonic Macerated : This coffee lot is meticulously processed beginning with hand-picking, where only fully ripe cherries — deep red or purplish depending on variety — are selectively harvested to ensure optimal sugar levels for precise fermentation and flavor clarity. Immediately after harvest, the cherries undergo water flotation sorting, where dense, ripe cherries are separated from underripe or defective floaters, guaranteeing high-quality inputs. The sorted cherries then undergo 60 hours of carbonic maceration fermentation in sealed tanks, inoculated with a custom culture to maintain control
and consistency, enhancing complexity and clarity in the cup. Post-fermentation, the cherries are dried on raised beds inside a polyhouse, with regular raking to promote even drying over 7–10 days while minimizing microbial risks. To protect quality, the cherries are covered each evening to prevent moisture reabsorption from dew, ensuring a steady drying curve. Throughout this process, moisture content is carefully monitored, and once it reaches the stable range of 11–12%, the coffee is ready for safe storage, preserving the delicate flavors and aromas.
