This lot the coffee is collected every 18 days and only extremely ripe cherries. A floating process is then done to get rid of any immature beans. The cherry is then placed in sealed bags for an additional 12 hours to extend fermentation.
Afterwards it is pulped and a dry fermentation of 24 hours takes place.
The coffee is then washed and cleaned for immatures. It is then dried taken in a mechanical silo taking between 8 to 16 hours (35 degrees celsius max temper
