The natural method is the oldest way to process coffee. The whole cherry is dried with the fruit still intact, letting the beans soak up sugars and flavours from the pulp and skin. Legesse dries his cherries for 24 to 28 days, turning them with great care to ensure even drying and avoid fermentation defects.

We roast it light in Kuala Lumpur to protect every bit of that fruit, so the mango and grape notes arrive bright and intact in your cup.
