Timor-Leste Raimutin

The Coffee

Our second coffee from Timor-Leste imported by Raw Material

Processed at the Raimutin Wet Mill in Atsebe, Ermera, Ripe cherry is first floated in water, to separate the fruit by density. The higher the density, the higher the
quality of the coffee. The station staff then meticulously hand-sort the freshly picked and well-sorted cherry, removing all damaged or underripe fruit by eye. This well-sorted harvest is now pulped, separating the cherry from the parchment coffee. The coffee then undergoes fermentation for a full 24 hours. Once this stage is complete the parchment is washed again, removing any residual floaters and cherry skin in the process. The parchment is then transported to raised beds, where the coffee is dried.

Expect sweet red apple notes followed by a smooth vanilla and deep maple syrup notes

Location & Farmer

The Raimutin Wet Mill serves as a central hub for processing the cherry of the producers we work with across the Ermera municipality. Sitting at 1400 MASL, the wet mill has served not only as a place to purchase, process, and dry cherry, but as a meeting point for the village chiefs and neighbourhood leaders, and Raw Material. Expanding the reach of specialty coffee as a viable option for profitable returns includes the importance of training. The Raimutin Wet Mill has successfully served as the hub for training courses in both cultivation, picking, and processing for local producers.
