Precision Processing: The Washed Bourbon Standard

This lot is processed with meticulous care to highlight purity and clarity.

High‑Altitude Bourbon (1900–2200 MASL)

Slow cherry maturation at extreme elevations increases density and flavour complexity.

12–24 Hour Fermentation

After depulping, the cherries undergo controlled fermentation to unlock floral aromatics and refined acidity.

Sun‑Drying on Raised Beds

The parchment dries for 2–3 weeks until it reaches the ideal 11–12% moisture content, ensuring stability and longevity.

Quality Assurance

Every lot is cupped multiple times to ensure only the finest, defect‑free beans reach your filter brewer.
