Washed processing removes the cherry skin and mucilage before drying for a clean, direct cup. The result is a bright, citrus-driven coffee with a distinctive piquant edge and raisin sweetness, carried by a medium, well-rounded body.

This Catimor, Caturra, Bourbon, Catuai, and Tipica mix spreads agronomic risk — some varieties resist disease or drought better than others — and builds cup complexity, since each variety contributes a slightly different structure and flavour to the blended harvest. It reflects a traditional mixed-planting approach rather than a single-variety microlot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin: 0 0 0.25rem;\"\u003eDoes growing at 900 to 1,000 metres mean lower quality than higher-altitude coffee?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 1rem;\"\u003eAltitude shapes flavour character more than it determines quality outright. Higher-altitude cherries mature more slowly and often build denser structure and more layered acidity; lower-altitude cherries like this lot mature faster and tend to produce a brighter, more direct citrus character with a rounder body. This lot's SCA 86 cupping score confirms it performs at a high specialty level — altitude is one input among several, alongside variety, processing, and farm management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin: 0 0 0.25rem;\"\u003eWhat does \"HG EP — SCA 86\" mean on the label?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 1rem;\"\u003eHG EP stands for Hard Bean, European Preparation. Hard Bean refers to bean density, European Preparation means the green coffee has been sorted to a tighter defect tolerance than standard export-grade prep. SCA 86 is the cupping score assigned under Specialty Coffee Association protocol — anything 80 and above qualifies as specialty grade, so this lot sits comfortably above that threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin: 0 0 0.25rem;\"\u003eHow should I store this green coffee?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003eStore in a cool, dry place away from direct light and moisture. Green coffee is stable for 12 to 18 months in correct storage conditions. We ship all our green coffee in 9 layer hermetic Ecotact bags to preserve moisture content and the aromatic character of this lot between roasting sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/article\u003e","brand":"United Beans","offers":[{"title":"1 LB","offer_id":54103977197851,"sku":null,"price":20.81,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5 LB -$19.35 per LB | save 7%","offer_id":54103977230619,"sku":null,"price":48.37,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 LB - $17.68 per LB | save 15%","offer_id":54103977263387,"sku":null,"price":176.84,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 LB -$14.56 per LB | save 30%","offer_id":54103977296155,"sku":null,"price":218.4,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 LB - $13.52 per LB | save 35%","offer_id":54103977328923,"sku":null,"price":405.6,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Larger order | contact hello@unitedbeans.ca","offer_id":54103977361691,"sku":null,"price":13.52,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0848\/2403\/1515\/files\/ethiopia-yirgacheffe-g4-natural-green-coffee-beans-passion-fruit-green-apple-and-berry-coffee-beans-in-bulk-4300439.png?v=1781431570","url":"https:\/\/unitedbeans.ca\/products\/mexico-chiapas-yajalon-green-coffee-beans","provider":"United Beans","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
