Processing Info

Cochadas is the name of the way the coffee was harvested. For one week, each day the coffee is harvested, it is first floated for quality, and then tank-rested in-cherry, resulting in an average of 3.5 days of fermentation, before being pulped and fully washed.

The coffee was dried in elda, which is a coverable, rooftop concrete patio. It wasopen in the day to a full-sun environment, and covered in the cool evenings for a total of 5 days.
