Frequently Asked Questions

Which Crop Cafe coffee is best for beginners?

What does "natural processed" coffee mean?
Natural processing means the coffee cherry is dried whole around the bean, allowing the fruit's sugars to infuse into the coffee. This produces sweeter, fruitier flavours like the Colombia Alba Natural with its pomegranate and strawberry notes.
