About this Coffee
About the Natural Anaerobic Process
At Beneficio San Diego Mill, the natural anaerobic process starts with handpicked super mature coffee cherries that have a Brix degree (a measurement of sugar content) near 26. Selecting the cherries with a high sugar content and helps feed the anaerobic process. For this artisanal process, the coffee cherry and mucilage is left on the bean (natural processing) and placed in a airtight tanks to stimulate the anaerobic fermentation process. In the tanks the coffee develops in a unique mix of acids such as lactic and malic, resulting in a very complex flavor. Once ready the coffee is 100% sun dried.
