About The Process

Ripe cherries are selectively handpicked and a sample lot is tested for Brix level (23) to assess sugar content. They are then sorted through floater separation and de-stoned to remove impurities. Denser cherries are double washed and transferred into double-walled stainless steel tanks, where yeast cultures are evenly mixed with the coffee for 48 hours of anaerobic fermentation. Post-fermentation, the coffee is dried on raised beds in a greenhouse under controlled temperatures and raked hourly, initially in thicker layers for three days and then spread thinner until the desired moisture content is achieved.
