Our Coffee Processes

Washed Process

In the washed process, also known as the wet process, coffee cherries are pulped to remove the outer skin and pulp. The beans are then fermented in water to remove any remaining mucilage. After fermentation, the beans are thoroughly washed and then dried. This method highlights the coffee’s intrinsic flavors, producing a clean and bright cup with pronounced acidity.

Natural Process

The natural process, or dry process, involves drying the whole coffee cherries directly in the sun after they are harvested. The cherries are spread out in thin layers and regularly turned to ensure even drying and prevent spoilage. Once dried, the outer layers are mechanically removed to extract the beans. This method often results in a fruity and complex flavor profile with a heavier body.

Honey Process

The honey process, also known as the pulped natural process, is a hybrid method that combines aspects of both the washed and natural processes. The cherries are pulped, but instead of removing all the mucilage through fermentation, the beans are dried with varying amounts of mucilage still attached. This creates a balance between the clean flavors of washed coffee and the fruity notes of natural coffee, often resulting in a sweet and medium-bodied cup.
