Q: What does "natural" vs "washed" mean?
A: Natural process means the coffee cherry is dried whole, with the fruit still on the bean — this
creates bold, fruity, sometimes fermented flavors (like Jam Jar). Washed process removes the fruit before
drying, producing cleaner, brighter, more acidic coffees (like Pink Lady and Spring Forward). Neither is better — they're different flavor experiences.
Q: What is "EF2" processing?
A: EF2 stands for Enhanced Fermentation 2 — a multi-stage process combining aerobic and anaerobic
fermentation that creates complex, fruit-forward flavors. Upside Down Colombia Chiroso uses this method,
resulting in its distinctive black cherry and pineapple notes. It's cutting-edge coffee processing.
Q: Are single-origin coffees seasonal?
A: Yes. Single-origin coffees are harvested once or twice a year, depending on the region. Rosso's single
origins rotate based on what's fresh and available. If you find one you love, buy extra — it may not
return until next year's harvest.
