Pino Alto Geisha Washed Processing Method Selective Harvesting: Cherries are picked at their ripest stage, ensuring a 20 Brix grade sugar level for optimal sweetness. First Fermentation: Whole cherries are placed in a closed tank for 24 hours , allowing initial fermentation to develop nuanced flavors. Pulping & Second Fermentation: The cherries are pulped without water and transferred to an open tank , where they ferment without water for 24 hours . Drying: Once fermentation is complete, the coffee is set with the few mucilage it still having and carefully dried in raised African beds for approximately 35 days , this few mucilage create the perfect white honey process, during the drying we are ensuring a controlled temperature below 35°C to achieve a 10-11% moisture content .
