Variety & Processing

It’s Red Catuai variety, a compact plant with high yielding potential of standard quality in Central America. It was processed using washed fermentation method. Blood red cherries were handpicked and brought to washing station were floaters were separated. After depuling skins, beans with the mucilage are placed to the fermentation tanks for 72hour period, after fermentation when mucilage is totally removed parchment benas are transfered to “african beds” for drying which takes 28 days in the in the shadow. Washed fermantation and slow drying result in longer shelf life of coffee, at the same time produces crisp clean and balanced cup.
