These handpicked cherries then undergo a thorough floating and draining process, setting the stage for the unique fermentation journey. The cherries are meticulously fermented anaerobically for 9 to 10 days, infusing the beans with extraordinary flavors. Post-fermentation, the coffee tanks find their home amidst the forest, where the temperature remains stable, allowing the coffee to reach its optimal state.
Following this, the coffee is gently dried on raised beds, a process that extends over approximately 25 days. This careful drying method is followed by a period of rest, maintaining a humidity of 12%, allowing the flavors to further develop and refine.
