About Processing Methods
To customize your coffee experience, you can choose between 'natural', 'washed' or ‘honey’ processing methods.
With the 'natural' processing method, ripe coffee cherries are harvested and dried with the beans inside. The cherries are spread out in the sun or on raised beds, allowing the beans to absorb flavors from the fruit during drying. This method imparts unique characteristics to the coffee, including fruity and wine-like flavors, a full body, and often lower acidity. Natural coffees are known for their complex flavor profiles.
With the 'washed' processing method, ripe coffee cherries are harvested, de-pulped to remove the outer skin, and then undergo fermentation to remove the mucilage. The beans are thoroughly washed, dried, milled, and sorted. This process results in a clean and distinct flavor profile with bright acidity, clarity of flavor, and a pronounced aroma. Washed coffee is appreciated for its balanced and nuanced characteristics.
With the 'honey' processing, ripe coffee cherries are de-pulped, leaving a layer of mucilage (a sticky, honey-like substance) on the beans. These beans are then dried with the mucilage still attached, imparting a sweet, fruity flavor and distinctive complexity to the coffee.
