Once harvested, the coffee cherries rest in the shade for three days in specially designed boxes before being de-pulped. The seeds are then washed and water-fermented for 48 hours. Finally, they are dried under the sun on raised beds.
Francisco’s love and dedication shine through in every cup.
"I am proud and thankful to see how specialty coffee brings purpose to my day-to-day. Sumava is a nest of peace and natural harmony, with chilly mornings and evenings, beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and Central Valley, the sounds of birds, and the wind dancing with the cypress trees. What I enjoy most about this coffee are the deep fruit notes and its intensity of flavors." -Francisco Mena
