This specialised lot is cultivated at impressive elevations of 1,945 to 2,100 meters above sea level, allowing the heirloom varieties to benefit from unique high-altitude microclimates. The Process This coffee undergoes an improved natural process meticulously executed by a community of approximately 750 smallholder farmers. Every step is designed to enhance the bean's inherent characteristics • Hand-Sorting: Cherries are hand-sorted at the family-owned Testi Coffee Washing Station to ensure only the ripest fruit is selected. • Water Floating: Cherries are floated in water to remove low-density or imperfect fruit, leaving only the healthiest, dense beans. • Precision Drying: Approximately 25 kg of cherries are spread to a thickness of 5 cm on African drying beds. • Frequent Turning: To ensure even drying, the cherries are turned 5 to 6 times a day. • Patience: The process takes between 15 to 21 days until the coffee reaches an optimal moisture content of 11% to 12%.
