Su Nandar Linn continues this commitment to develop the country’s speciality industry through The Lady.

These rather fine coffee cherries are collected from 51 women farmers from Nwar Ban Gyi village.  They are then floated to remove under ripe fruits / defects.  Both dry and wet fermentation methods are utilised to create this coffee. The wet fermented coffee is sealed under water in closed tanks for a certain period of time till it gets to desired pH level. The dry fermented coffee is done the same way in enclosed tanks, to bring up the brix (sugar content) of the cherries to increase body and sweetness. The cherries from both fermentation methods are then carefully blended to create the optimum taste / sensory profile that you will find in this delicious coffee. Coffees are dried for approximately 20-24 days on raised beds.
