The Duwanqi processing plant is located in the Buku Abel village at an altitude of 2200 meters. During the harvesting and processing season (December-January), its unique growing environment and natural climate create Duwanqi's distinctive flavor characteristics. We only begin natural processing when the sugar content of harvested red cherries reaches above 30. During the first two days of natural processing, we maintain the humidity of the red cherries to ensure thorough fermentation of their fruit sugars. Meanwhile, the high-altitude location allows the processing plant's nighttime temperature to drop to around 12 degrees Celsius, preventing over-fermentation odors due to excessive heat. During midday when temperatures are higher, we promptly provide shading to prevent sun-damage to the red cherries.

At night, thick plastic sheets are used to wrap the cherries to protect against sudden rainfall. This allows the red cherries to ferment and dehydrate at lower temperatures. After 18 days of natural processing, when the moisture content of the green coffee beans drops to around 13%, the natural processing is stopped. The beans are then packed in jute bags and stored in warehouse conditions at 12-22 degrees Celsius with 40-50% humidity for approximately 50 days of bean resting and further dehydration. When the green bean moisture content reaches around 10%, they are transported to the processing plant for hulling, screening, and sale.
