Background:

Nebilyer Wet Mill was founded in 2015 and serves a number of smallholder producers in the area around Tambul Nebilyer. Producers in this region typically own less than 5 hectares each, and grow a mix of good varieties including Caturra, Bourbon, and Typica.

At this mill, coffee is delivered in its cherry form, and it is sorted and depulped at the mill before being fermented for 36 hours underwater. The seeds are then washed clean three times before being brought to the drying fields, where they will dry for 6–7 days, weather permitting.
