The Washed Process – Precision & Purity This washed (fully washed) process is designed to enhance clarity, sweetness, and balance: ✅ Step 1: Floating & Sorting – Coffee cherries are floated in water to remove any underripe or defective beans, ensuring only the ripest fruit is selected.✅ Step 2: Depulping – The cherries are carefully depulped, separating the seeds (coffee beans) from their outer fruit.✅ Step 3: Fermentation Tanks – Beans are placed in fermentation tanks with water to naturally remove the mucilage, allowing for clean, crisp flavors to develop.✅ Step 4: Slow Drying – The coffee is sun-dried until it reaches the perfect moisture content, locking in its signature flavor profile. This meticulous process results in a bright, well-structured cup with a refined sweetness and smooth finish.
