Farmers often harvest the crop in stages as well as carefully handpick each coffee cherry at its very peak of ripeness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoffee drying is considered to be the most complex and meticulous process. After harvesting, the cherries are laid out on drying beds and exposed to the sun for a duration of 10 days to 2 weeks and frequently raked to promote even drying. As the cherries dry, the farmer keeps a close eye on moisture content and once satisfied, the hulling process can begin. Hulling removes the parchment layer (or endocarp) of the dried cherries. The resulting beans are then graded, sorted and bagged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRegion: Bani Matar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAltitude: 2000-2500 meters above sea level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCultivar: Mokka\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProcess: Natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eScreen Size: 14\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCup Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coffee reveals good acidity, complex flavour notes of wine and dark chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TERRA COFFEE AND TEA LTD","offers":[{"title":"250 G","offer_id":44206609400048,"sku":"CTERV001YE02VTG","price":22.26,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 KG","offer_id":40078341865647,"sku":"CTERV001YE02VTG","price":80.12,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 KG","offer_id":44112540860656,"sku":"CTERV001YE02VTG","price":378.37,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 KG","offer_id":48726562537712,"sku":"CTERV001YE02VTG","price":1226.87,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/3321\/9503\/products\/yemen-moka-mattari-green-coffee.jpg?v=1770326950","url":"https:\/\/cafeterra.ca\/products\/yemen-mocha-mattari-green-coffee","provider":"Terra Café et Thé Ltée","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
