A mix of predominantly SL-28, but also Ruiru 11, and SL-34 varieties are picked and delivered to the wet mill. The cherries are then hand sorted and floated to remove defects, proceeding to a classic Kenyan “double washed” processing method. The cherries are first pulped then washed, fermented for 14-21 hours, then washed again before being dried on raised beds for 14-21 days, covered during the mid-day sun.
