Processing

Mengalian Dai, Lahu and Va Autonomous County

Banka Farm and Washing Station is based in Mengalian Dai, Lahu and Va Autonomous County, Yunnan and is named after the two adjacent villages (Banka Yi and Banka Er).

Nutty & Sweet

Chinese coffees typically offer pleasant sweetness and fruitiness, with lower acidity and a fuller body. This lot certainly follows suit, delivering cherry sweetness alongside smooth, nutty notes.

Natural

After harvesting, cherries are fed through an optical colour sorter to remove any over / under ripe cherries and foreign material. Ripe cherries then undergo a temperature-controlled fermentation for two days, before being transferred to raised beds for drying.
