ABOUT THE PROCESS
It’s called natural processed because the coffee cherry itself stays intact (in its natural state!) throughout the entire process, rather than the process initiating with taking off the outer peeling of the ripened coffee cherry. By leaving the peeling, the bean absorbs the sugars which leads to a fruitier, sweeter flavor when brewed. Something that makes this process even sweeter is that it’s more environmentally-friendly than conventionally processed coffee because it doesn’t require water!
Notes: Caramel, red apple, tart apple, peach, tangerine, and a silky body
Varieties: Bourbon, Caturra, Pache, Catuai
Elevation: 1,500-1,900 meters
Atitlán Region: This region’s coffee is cultivated on the shores of Lake Atitlán, a crater lake encircled by three volcanoes — Atitlán, Tolimán, and San Pedro. The high humidity, volcanic proximity, and daily Xocomil winds stirring cold lake waters create a distinct microclimate that gives Atitlán’s coffee a unique profile.
