THE PRODUCER
At 2,350 masl in Murago, Sidama, Bekele's farm is part of a new wave of high-altitude coffee production. He produces Natural, Anaerobic Natural, and Honey-processed coffees, and his slow drying techniques create complex flavours.

The price paid for this lot is 15.4 USD/kg, chosen based on the quality of the coffee.
THE PROCESS
This lot is Honey: the cherries are pulped and dried with some of the mucilage left on, which builds sweetness and body. The page doesn't give further steps for this lot.
