About the Process
When the coffee cherries are ripe, they are selectively hand picked and transported to the wet mill on the farm in plastic boxes to prevent damage. Here, the coffee is submerged in a tank of water to remove any floaters, or low-quality cherries. They are then pulped and left to ferment for 12 hours to break down the external mucilage. Next, the coffee is carefully washed with clean water to remove any remaining mucilage.
This water is purified in an oxidation lagoon post-processing. The coffee is then dispersed on patios to dry in the sun for 7 – 10 days, depending on the weather
