This coffee is built the hard way. During harvest, every cherry is selectively handpicked by farming families who typically tend just 200–250 trees. Once picked, the cherries are fermented for around 36 hours with LALCAFÉ INTENSO™ yeast—a precision strain developed specifically for coffee to enhance fruit character, improve consistency, and keep unwanted microbes in check.
After fermentation, the cherries head to raised drying beds for a slow, careful sun-drying process lasting two to three weeks. They’re turned, sorted, and monitored daily, covered at night and during rain, with defective cherries removed along the way. No shortcuts, no compromises.
When the coffee reaches its ideal moisture level, it’s bagged and delivered to the warehouse, where Greenco’s cupping team evaluates every lot. Each batch remains fully traceable by station, harvest day, and quality score. The result is a coffee with muscle, precision, and a clean, fruit-forward profile that speaks clearly of its origin.

What is the difference between "Washed" and "Unwashed" coffee?
What is the difference between "Washed" and "Unwashed" coffee?
These terms refer to the "process"—how the coffee cherry is removed from the bean. Washed coffees are cleaned with water, resulting in a bright, clean, and "tea-like" cup that highlights the bean's origin. Unwashed (or Natural) coffees are dried with the fruit still on the bean, leading to a "funky," full-bodied cup with intense notes of ripe fruit and sweetness.
"Fruity" vs. "Not So Fruity"—how do I choose?
"Fruity" vs. "Not So Fruity"—how do I choose?
We categorize our coffees to make your choice easier. If you enjoy bright, acidic, and complex notes (like berries or citrus), go for "Fruity." If you prefer a more classic, chocolatey, and nutty profile with lower acidity, "Not So Fruity" is for you.
