picking
Ripe coffee cherries are handpicked.
Ripe coffee cherries are handpicked.
The cherries are processed to separate the coffee beans from the fruit.
Beans are sun-dried to reduce moisture, then hulled and polished.
Heat transforms the green beans into aromatic coffee, developing unique flavors and aromas.
Light brown in color, light roasts have a toasted grain taste and pronounced acidity. They retain most of the original coffee characteristics.
Medium brown in color, medium roasts have a balanced flavor, aroma, and acidity. They are often referred to as the "American roast."
Dark brown to almost black in color, dark roasts have a pronounced bitterness and a smoky or even burnt flavor. They have the least acidity and the heaviest body.
