Tano Batak

Tano Batak uses a unique processing method called giling basah or wet-hulled coffee, where coffee cherries are picked, pulped, fermented, washed and then sun dried in their parchment. But before the coffee is fully dried, it is sold at market and then the parchment is hulled, still wet, at around 28-32% moisture content. The coffee then finishes drying in greenhouses to a 11-12% moisture content and is then sorted by hand.
