Pulped natural, also known as honey processed, is a coffee processing method where the coffee bean's skin is removed but the sticky fruit mucilage is left on during drying. This method sits between the "washed" and "natural" processes, resulting in a coffee with a balanced cup profile that combines the sweetness and body of natural coffees with the clarity and balanced acidity of washed coffees. It often produces flavors described as sweet, nutty, or chocolatey with a medium body.
