A few months after the coffee tree flowers, fleshy red fruits appear: coffee cherries, each containing two coffee beans.
After harvesting, the fruits are sorted according to their quality, the thin skin around the coffee beans is removed and then they too are sorted.
Then comes the essential stage of roasting, which releases the aromas and gives the distinctive flavour to each type of coffee. Roasting is carried out between 180°C and 240°C for a length of time that varies depending on the desired colour and taste.
