This coffee was carefully hand-picked in order to use only the ripest cherries, exposed to an aerobic environment for 24 hours, and then placed in sealed GrainPro bags for 200 hours of fermentation. It was then sun-dried on raised beds until ideal moisture content was achieved. The result is a full bodied cup, with strong notes of dried pineapple and blackberry jam, with a winey, lemongrass finish.
