Selecting the right ripe Coffee cherry
Once pollinated, the coffee plants take their sweet time of 1 year to develop its Cherry! When ripe, we do select picking of the "right red" cherries to ensure you get a balanced tones from our plantation! This is often not the most economical as we go 2 to 3 rounds harvesting the right fruit for you. We only harvest ripe (ripe yellow and red), and segregate the reds, while we move out the floaters (over ripe). These uniform lots are what gets chosen to travel to you.
Visiting plantation during this time is one of the best times, and second to only a fully blossomed coffee garden. You can also observe next year flowers preparing themselves on the plant!
