Processing Method:

Washed (Fully Washed Process)

1. Harvesting: Only ripe coffee cherries are hand-selected to ensure consistency and quality.
2. Pulping: The outer skin is removed, leaving the beans covered in mucilage.
3. Fermentation: The beans are left in fermentation tanks for a controlled period to break down the mucilage, enhancing clarity and brightness.
4. Washing: The beans are thoroughly washed to remove all remaining residues.
5. Drying: Sun-dried on raised African beds for even moisture reduction and optimal flavor retention.
6. Milling & Sorting: Once dried, the beans are hulled to remove the parchment layer and sorted to ensure uniform quality.

The washed process enhances the coffee’s clean, crisp flavors, bright acidity, and floral aromatics.

Tasting Notes:

• Jasmine – Elegant floral aromatics with a delicate, tea-like quality.
• Citrus Zest – A refreshing, bright acidity reminiscent of lemon or orange peel.
• Honey – A smooth, natural sweetness that rounds out the cup.

Acidity:

• Bright and lively, enhancing the coffee’s fruit and floral characteristics.

Body:

• Light to medium-bodied with a silky, tea-like texture.

Aftertaste:

For the best experience, filter brewing methods (e.g., V60, Chemex, Kalita Wave) are recommended to highlight its clarity, while espresso brewing provides a nuanced, floral, and citrus-forward shot.
