Welcome the shift to cooler days with a coffee crafted for coziness. Its crisp and juicy cranberry acidity dances with the sweet and spice notes of apple cider evoking the feeling of autumn air. Its warm, pumpkin-like body and aftertaste leave a rich and cozy finish - perfect for sweater weather.
About the Producer
Rungeto Cooperative Society is owned and operated by 2200+ smallholder farmers. The cooperative emphasizes high-quality processing and sustainability. The factory uses tiled washing channels, fermentation tanks, and systems to recycle processing water and manage wastewater. Grown in the region’s rich, volcanic soils, the coffees are washed using water from the local River Karimikui, for which the station is named. The cooperative's focus on precise processing and the region's unique growing conditions results in high-quality, distinct coffee.
Process
Natural
What is the Natural Process?
The Natural process is a sun-dried process that involves the drying of cherries whole without the additional use of any other materials, including water for washing or machines for depulping. (Hence the term "natural!) Before the coffee is dried, it is harvested from the trees, floated in water, then sorted to remove any fruits that are not up to standard. From there, the sun-drying begins.
