Description from Groundswell Coffee Roasters:

"Producer: Various producers, Hamasho Washing Station Region: Sidama Elevation: 2360masl Process: Natural Hamasho cherries are processed at Hamasho Washing Station. Hamasho, together with Keramo are our highest elevation coffees from Ethiopia, with elevations up to 2360 meter above sea level. The beans are very dense, with heavy concentrations of the smaller screen sizes (the majority of the coffee screen sizes at 13-14) which reflects slow maturation at higher altitudes. The washed Hamasho is traditionally wet fermented during 36 to 72 hours, and then dried on African beds with clean plastic mesh and sheet, for about 9 to 12 days to around 10% moisture. during high sun, the beds are covered to prevent over drying. Natural Hamasho is made from well selected, ripe cherry. The cherry is floated upon reception to remove any low quality cherry. The cherry is then dried on African beds for 14 to 18 days. The cherries are locally hulled into unsorted natural beans, and then transported to Addis for final sorting."
