"Mùa Hè – meaning “Summer” in Vietnamese – is an anaerobically processed natural coffee produced by Zanya Coffee in Langbiang. 
 
The K'Ho ethnic group, whose small private farms are located at the foot of Lang Biang Mountain, is resisting land investors and the emergence of a competing flower industry that threatens their culture.
 
In collaboration with the K'Ho, we would like to offer you this special coffee and support the preservation of coffee culture in Lang Biang.
 
The cherries are hand-picked, separated from the unripe cherries using a visual sorting machine, and then floated before being placed in airtight fermentation tanks for 80 hours. Here, they ferment in the absence of oxygen.
 
The cherries are then spread out on drying beds and dried for about 30 days. They are moved several times a day to ensure even drying.
 
After drying, the cherries are separated from the beans using a “huller”.
 
Finally, the defects are hand-sorted and the green coffee is stored in Grain Pro bags until export."
