At Rancho Morelia, coffee cherries are meticulously hand-picked and immediately pulped at the farm’s own wet mill, ensuring optimal freshness and quality. The farm’s commitment to excellence extends to Edelmira Coffee, where the beans undergo final preparation at a local dry mill. Here, they are processed with precision, adhering to the highest quality standards before export.
By harmonizing tradition with sustainability, Rancho Morelia honors its heritage and its unique place within the El Triunfo Reserve.
 
Fully Washed Extended Fermentation 
Fully-washed coffee beans, also known as wet-processed coffee beans, are a specialised coffee processing method that focuses on swiftly removing the cherry fruit from the coffee bean immediately after harvest. This method involves a series of meticulous steps, commencing with soaking freshly picked cherries in water for several days. This soaking process plays an important role in breaking down the fruit's outer layer, facilitating its removal. After the cherries have been soaked, they undergo a mechanised procedure that removes the fruit's outer layer, leaving only the coffee bean. Multiple rinses follow to eliminate lingering fruit particles before the beans are dried.
 
This extended fermentation process requies the beans to be soaked for longer than usual to extract more floavor from the fruit.
