The plants.
The flowers smelt so good!
Building the coffee cherry beds.
Baby plants, after 4 years they produce good beans.
The bamboo beds where they dry all the cherries.
The cherry before it's dried.
Lots of drying cherries on a bamboo bed. They need to be turned around several times a day.
Dried cherries on the left, the cherry shells and the beans before roasting.
Our guide Gary and the roasting machine.
Beans roasted at different heats/time periods.
After finishing the perfect roast, Gary filled a bag of coffee each for us and sealed it like a trooper with a good old fashioned iron.
We also tried coffee tea - made out of the dried cherry shells. Actually yummy!
