This fully washed lot is graded to meet the AA standard (indicating the largest screen size), ensuring high cup clarity and well-developed sweetness with prominent stone fruit and delicate herbal notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost farmers manage small plots averaging 300 to 500 coffee trees, consisting of SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11 and Batian varieties. Consistent rainfall, cool mountain temperatures at 1,700 to 1,800 meters above sea level, and traditional cultivation methods contribute to slow cherry development, producing beans with distinctive quality and bright, citrus-forward flavors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelected cherries are pulped and fermented for approximately 12 to 24 hours. Following fermentation, coffee is soaked in clean water for 24 hours before being moved to raised beds to dry.  At the drying stage, the parchment is evenly laid on raised beds or in solar driers (covered greenhouses) and raked frequently to ensure even drying. If on beds, workers cover drying parchment during the hottest time of day to maintain slow, even drying and at night to shelter parchments from moisture. It takes approximately 7 to 21 days to complete the drying process.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PT's Coffee","offers":[{"title":"10oz \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":50848275202096,"sku":"19781WB","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10oz \/ Espresso","offer_id":50848275234864,"sku":"19781ES","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10oz \/ Fine","offer_id":50848275267632,"sku":"19781FI","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10oz \/ Auto","offer_id":50848275300400,"sku":"19781AU","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10oz \/ Coarse","offer_id":50848275333168,"sku":"19781CO","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":50848275365936,"sku":"39781WB","price":59.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb \/ Espresso","offer_id":50848275398704,"sku":"39781ES","price":59.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb \/ Fine","offer_id":50848275431472,"sku":"39781FI","price":59.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb \/ Auto","offer_id":50848275464240,"sku":"39781AU","price":59.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb \/ Coarse","offer_id":50848275497008,"sku":"39781CO","price":59.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":50848275529776,"sku":"59781WB","price":131.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Espresso","offer_id":50848275562544,"sku":"59781ES","price":131.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Fine","offer_id":50848275595312,"sku":"59781FI","price":131.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Auto","offer_id":50848275628080,"sku":"59781AU","price":131.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb \/ Coarse","offer_id":50848275660848,"sku":"59781CO","price":131.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/7448\/files\/Kangunu4copy.jpg?v=1792689447","url":"https:\/\/ptscoffee.com\/products\/kangunu-aa-washed","provider":"PT's Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
