All coffee bearing the Sigri name is grown at over 5000 feet elevation.  Sigri considers soil and water conservation as a priority, and the plantation is bird and eco-friendly.  The plantation employs a medium-density shade strategy, using two types of shade trees.  This promotes even ripening of coffee cherries and provides habitat for at least 90 species of birds.  Sigri is a washed coffee and undergoes a rigorous wet factory process.  Quality control begins in the field; coffee cherries are hand-picked and carefully checked for uniformity and then pulped on the day of picking.  A fermentation process follows - a period of three days broken every 24 hours by washing - followed by total immersion in water for an additional day.  Careful conditioning of 21 days is followed by hulling, grading, color sorting and finally hand sorting.  This light roasted peaberry features flavors of black cherry, orange, and baking spices.
