Ideal for both filter and espresso brewing, this coffee is perfect for those who appreciate a bold and fruity profile.

Processing Method:

Natural (Dry Processed)

1. Harvesting: Only the ripest cherries are handpicked to ensure peak sweetness and quality.
2. Drying: The cherries are spread out on raised drying beds, allowing them to dry naturally under the sun. They are regularly turned to ensure even drying, a process that takes several weeks.
3. Fermentation: As the cherries dry, they undergo a slow fermentation process, enhancing the coffee’s fruity and complex flavor notes.
4. Hulling & Sorting: Once dried to the ideal moisture content, the beans are hulled to remove the dried fruit layer, then carefully sorted for quality and consistency.

The natural process intensifies the coffee’s fruit-forward characteristics, giving it a rich sweetness and syrupy body.
