Traditionally, coffee cherries in Sumatra are pulped, fermented, and partially dried to about 30–40% moisture before being transported to wet-hulling mills. There, specialized equipment is required to remove the parchment from still-moist seeds—much like trying to shell a damp peanut, which takes significantly more force. After wet hulling, the beans are further dried to a final moisture content of 10–12%.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;\"\u003eAt the Ribang Gayo Musara Cooperative \u003cspan\u003eAsman Arianto\u003c\/span\u003e has produced this Natural processed coffee, considered an experimental micro lot with limited availability. \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eMany high quality lots stay in Indonesia for local production.

The cup opens with tropical fruit, honey, and sweet cream. Beneath the fruit lies a subtle structure of warm spice and soft cedar, grounding the profile in its origin.
