REGULAR

You know how some people appear to have no hard corners, no sharp edges? They can get along fine with everybody.

They are easy to be around. When they listen, they do not just wait for their turn to speak or see it as an opportunity to unload on you what they know. They actually listen. Not because they don't have a stance of their own, but simply because they are gentle and tolerant.

This coffee is just like that. No sharp edges. It has a smooth taste that appeals to just about anyone and will make you want to say, "I'll have the usual".

  • Only ripe fruits are harvested by hand. After the fruits are separated from the beans (depulping), they are left in the fermentation tank overnight. Normally, no intervention is made to the beans until the humidity drops to 12%. In this process, however, the parchment and the pectin layer on the outside are stripped of the beans. They are then left to dry. Complex acidity and flavors appear as a result of this process.
