This particular lot comes from partnering farms located in the Veracruz growing region.  APG works with their community of farmers to provide technical assistance and best organic practices.  Harvest cherries from these select farms are delivered to the APG wet-mill, which has been redesigned to focus on lot separation and quality control. Cherries received at the APG wet-mill are meticulously sorted and floated to remove underripe and damaged coffee. Sorted cherries are then placed on raised beds and dried over a period that ranges from 15 to 20 days.  The dried coffee is stored in Grainpro cocoons until it is time to mill.  The milling and preparation is also done at the APG dry mill, meaning the coffee enjoys personal care from farm to export.  The APG dry mill is also recognized for its attention towards preparing specialty lots and was selected to mill the 2022 Cup of Excellent winning lots.
