Fruit Forward and Winey, Red in the Cup :-)))
In the natural process, only the ripest coffee cherries are harvested. The entire procedure requires thorough planning because drying naturals is a slow process that can take up to four weeks. Coffee cherries are dried whole, without removing any of the fruit. During this stage, the coffee is turned regularly to increase airflow, support even drying, and prevent spoilage. After the cherries have been dried, the seeds (or coffee beans) are removed from the fruit and prepared for export.
At the Guji Highland Coffee Plantation, skilled workers take extra care to sort out under-ripe cherries and natural debris for optimal final cup quality in multiple steps.
