About the process:

Natural : The optimal block for coffee picking is identified and selected from the estate based on ripeness and quality. Only the ripened cherries are carefully picked, and any defects, including unripe cherries, twigs, and other foreign particles, are removed. A sample lot is taken to measure the Brix level (24). Lighter coffee fruits and foreign materials are removed through floater removal, and the cherries are de-stoned to eliminate unwanted materials. The denser coffee cherries are double washed for cleanliness. The coffee fruits are placed in double-walled stainless steel tanks, and selected cultivated yeast is added for the fruit and allowed to ferment anaerobically for 72 hours, with regular monitoring of fermentation. The tanks are rotated 2-3 times a day for homogenous fermentation. The fermented coffee is moved to a greenhouse for drying on raised beds to maintain temperatures, and it is raked hourly to ensure even drying. for a period of 23 days. Once the desired moisture level is achieved, the coffee is bagged in gunny bags and allowed to rest for 3-4 months before hulling.
