About this coffee
Mate Matewos Red Honey 74158. From Ethiopia, Sidama. Merchant processing label: Red Honey. Merchant tasting profile: grapefruit, black tea, sour watermelon.
Processing
The cherries are hand-sorted for ripeness, then floated in tanks. A second hand-sort follows before pulping. A manual disc pulper removes the skin while preserving as much mucilage (for Red Honey) as possible. The parchment then goes through a short fermentation before drying slowly on shaded beds with strong airflow—about 4-5 days longer than sun drying, but with better moisture control. Careful turning and covering throughout is what produces a consistent coffee.
