The Process:
Chilled Cherry processing is a variant of anaerobic natural processing. After leaving the tanks, the coffee is dried with the coffee cherry still intact. This creates a sweet and fruity taste that’s perfect for those who prefer a lighter, more refreshing coffee. The wet mill for this coffee is located in Dolega, a district of Chiriquí, where temperatures range between 20° to 35° Celsius. For this reason, they were able to create a process where they could extend the fermentation period without damaging the embryo and avoiding alcoholic boozy notes. The tanks are lined with jackets that enable the flow of cool water, so the cherries are kept at a stable, cool temperature. In this case the coffee was anaerobically fermented for 100 hours and then left to dry on patios for 653 hours with the cherry still intact.
