SANTA FELISA
Santa Felisa was established in 1904 by Mr. Trinidad E. Cruz and is now a 4th generation operation. The farm operates by analysing the laws of nature, and the needs of the community. Santa Felisa produces specialty coffee using a variety of processing methods, and has consistently won places in the Cup Of Excellence over the years.
FERMENTATION
Dry fermentation, also known as the natural process, involves drying the entire coffee cherry with skin, pulp and mucilage still attached, allowing a fermentation process that imparts natural sugars and fruity flavors to the bean. The coffee is dried on large raised beds or patios for several weeks, requiring careful monitoring and regular turning to ensure even drying.
