Dry-Process:  Dry-processed or naturally processed coffees are dried in the sun while they are still in the cherry. Prior to drying only cherries that float will be removed. Since the coffees are dried in contact with the sweet mucilage, the coffee will be heavy in body, sweet, smooth, and complex. This coffee is also one of the most complex to deal with do to the long drying times and possibility of fermentation which will cause an off or medicinal taste sometimes described as iodine-like.

Many coffee drinkers in Eastern Europe and the near east prefer the flavor of dry processed coffees.
