% 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 
Cherries are hand-sorted to remove underripe or damaged fruit and foreign material, followed by pre-pulp floating to eliminate floaters before pulping. Cherries are sorted, cleaned and then evenly spread on raised beds for drying, ensuring consistent airflow and protection from moisture and animals. The cherries dry over 30 days, turned frequently in sunlight and covered at night. Once fully dried, the outer fruit is removed, leaving the coffee beans ready for sorting and packing.

% 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.
