PROCESSING:

1. Harvesting: This is carried out ensuring a minimum of 90% ripe cherry.

2. Floating: This ensures the removal of green, overripe, and dry cherries through density selection.

3. Oxidation: The selected cherries are oxidised in food-grade plastic drums for 72 hours, allowing

controlled pre-fermentation.

4. Pre-drying: Following the 72 hours of cherry oxidation, the coffee enters an initial drying phase to

reduce the moisture content to approximately 15%.

5. Rehydration: The coffee is then rehydrated using hot water to prepare the beans for the

subsequent fermentation stage.

6. Fermentation: Fermentation is carried out for 144 hours at temperatures below 25 °C, using

mosto from previous fermentations and an specific yeast to guide microbial activity and a tropical

flavour development.

7. Final Drying: After fermentation, the coffee undergoes mechanical drying for 72 hours, with 38 °C

during the first 18 hours followed by 32 °C for the remainder.
