Fermented in three phases—both with and without water—then slowly dried on raised beds for over three weeks, the result is a cup that’s vibrant, precise, and naturally sweet.

Processing Details:
This Sidra microlot features a triple-stage fermentation and a double washed process:
Stage 1: Whole cherries ferment in a closed tank for 12 hours, kickstarting controlled microbial activity.
Stage 2: Cherries are pulped without water, then undergo 24 hours of open-tank fermentation to develop depth and fruit clarity.
Stage 3: After an initial wash and drain, the coffee ferments once more for 24 hours in open air, enhancing sweetness and balance.
The lot is then washed again and dried slowly on raised African beds over 25 days with careful temperature control (<35°C), achieving a final moisture content of 10–11.5%.
