Whole cherries are dried intact on raised beds. Requires meticulous turning and sorting. Produces heavy body and intense fruit flavors.

Honey process

Honey Process

A hybrid between washed and natural — skin removed with some mucilage left on the bean during drying. A controlled fermentation produces a clean and sweet cup.

Sweet Balanced
Anaerobic process

Anaerobic

Ripe cherries are fermented in sealed, oxygen-free tanks to control fermentation precisely, resulting in unique and complex fruity, wine-like, and sweet notes.
