Processing method

Natural process


Natural processing, also known as dry processing, is one of the oldest and most traditional methods of processing coffee cherries. After hand-picked harvest, the cherries are laid directly to bamboo beds to be dried in the sun with the skin and fruit intact. The sun enhances the natural flavours of the coffee which is contained in the protective layer of the skin.

 

Natural processing tends to give a more pronounced fruit-forward flavour to the coffee, often with a heavier body and pronounced sweetness compared to washed coffees.

Frequently asked questions

What varietal is Green Panama Espresso (0.5 kg) and how is it processed?
It is a Catuai varietal, prepared with Natural Process. The processing method shapes the cup: washed coffees taste cleaner and brighter, honey and natural coffees sweeter and more fruit-forward.
Can I roast Green Panama Espresso (0.5 kg) at home?
Yes — this is unroasted green coffee, exactly what home roasters want. Stored cool and dry, green beans keep their quality for many months, and you roast just what you need.
How fresh is the coffee when it arrives?
Green coffee is shipped from our EU warehouse. Unroasted beans are shelf-stable, so freshness is measured in months, not days — quality holds until you roast.
How should I store my coffee?
Keep the bag sealed, away from light, heat and moisture, and do not refrigerate. Grind just before brewing; whole beans stay at their best for several weeks after opening.
