Supported by qualified on-ground teams, Qima's post-harvest natural processing ensures a cup of clean flavours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFreshly harvested cherries are soaked in water to identify high-quality, dense cherries, and the floaters are removed. The cherries are then dried on raised beds, a route that dries the outer skin quickly to avoid fungal growth. In Ecuador, drying typically takes 4–6 weeks, depending on the weather. Once dried, the coffee is packed and stored for at least a month before being transported to Quito for milling and sorting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 4–6 week raised-bed drying is the defining step. It's what builds the clean forest fruit and vanilla sweetness behind this cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClean and silky: forest fruits lead, with vanilla sweetness and a beautiful, silky mouthfeel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavour Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🍇 Forest Fruits 🍦 Vanilla ✨ Silky\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"A Matter of Concrete","offers":[{"title":"Filter \/ 100g \/ October 14th","offer_id":59047197180278,"sku":"AMOC-RESERVA-SIDRA-NATURAL-FIL-100G-OCT14","price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/9152\/5021\/files\/template-sidra.png-cropped.jpg?v=1792402247","url":"https:\/\/sigmacoffee.co.uk\/products\/a-matter-of-concrete-la-reserva-anaerobic-natural-sidra-ecuador","provider":"Sigma Coffee UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
