About
The Blackburn Estate has its very own, beautifully organised wet mill and facility. Water from a spring, high on Mount Oldeani, supplies two reservoirs that are vital in times of drought. These water sources are also essential for pulping and washing the coffee at the mill and all of the coffee is then sun-dried on raised screens (African beds).
