% post_harvest_process exploration
coffee from the Shyira washing station this year is again, unbelievable. to the point where i almost secured all five versions of their red bourbon, wherein post-harvest processes included washed, anoxic washed, honey, natural and anoxic natural. honestly speaking, it would have been amazing to get all five, however i resisted and chose three that had the biggest variation in flavour.
% what raw material want you to know
After receiving cherries, only the best quality are selected through hand-picking and floating. They are placed in cleaned fermentation tanks, covered with a sheet, and submerged in cool water to create an anoxic environment for 48-hour fermentation. The water acts as a sealant and heat exchange, maintaining a stable 25°C by evaporating excess heat. Temperature is monitored, and hot water is added to the water pillow if needed. Post-fermentation, the water and sheet are removed, and the coffee is rinsed, pulped, washed, and graded. Finally, the beans are sun-dried 4–8 hours daily and dried on raised beds for 2–3 weeks.
% whole beans
Coffee is sold as whole beans (not ground). Coffee will be fulfilled and shipped out within 1 week after ordering and not more than 4 weeks after roasting at the time of fulfilment.
