Valentin selectively hand harvested ripe cherries, then immediately pulped them. After a brief fermentation, the coffee was washed to fully remove any remaining mucilage. The coffee then dried on raised beds for 15-20 days.
As can be seen in the photo, Valentin's coffee plants are interwoven among shade trees, providing natural habitat to native birds.
