After harvesting, the cherry is brought right to the family home, where they are able to do a variety of different processes, from washed and honeys to natural. As is common at mills in Costa Rica, at Cerro San Luis the type of honey is decided by how much mucilage is left on the coffee after depulping. This SL-28 variety (developed and most popularly grown in Kenya) from their farm Finca El Venado was processed using the White Honey process.
