Coffee Producers Note -
Hand picked cherries are sorted and rinsed with spring water where we remove any floats and under developed beans. Locally produced lactic strains are used to ferment with the cherries for 180 hours. We have purpose build tanks where we introduce CO2 to flush out the oxygen from the tanks to ferment the cherries and maintain the temperature throughout the process. Once the fermentation is complete we slow dry the cherries in raised bed to remove excess water and improve air circulation for even drying. Coffees are then rested for 6 weeks before we ship them for customers around the world.
