Parchment coffee

A Single Origin Coffee

Single-origin coffees are a type of coffee made from beans that come from a specific geographic location, such as a single farm, estate or region. These beans are not blended with beans from other areas, allowing for a pure expression of the unique flavours and characteristics of that particular origin.

Parchment coffee refers to coffee beans that are still enclosed in their parchment layer, which is a thin, protective husk that surrounds the green coffee bean after it has been processed. This stage typically occurs after the coffee cherries are harvested and the outer fruit has been removed, but before the beans are hulled to remove the parchment.

The parchment provides protection against physical damage, moisture and protects the beans during the drying process, which is crucial for preserving their quality. These beans undergo transformative roasting turns into the familiar brown beans.
