The washed anaerobic process involves an initial 12-hour open tank fermentation to homogenize the cherries' maturity. This is followed by a 48-hour sealed anaerobic fermentation. The coffee is then pulped, washed, and dried over 11 days on raised beds. This meticulous process results in a clean, balanced cup with enhanced flavors and consistency.
