This anaerobic washed process starts with carefully picked perfectly ripe coffee cherries. The cherries are first pulped, removing their skin and fruit, and then put in sealed tanks with water to ferment without oxygen for 5 days. This produces distinct acids, giving the coffee an exotic flavor. After the water is drained, the coffee is spread out on raised beds and patios to dry in the sun for 20 to 30 days. The coffee is raked frequently to ensure even drying.
