This guided tasting experience offers a rare opportunity to explore fermentation in isolation. Four coffees from a single harvest at one farm in Guatemala have each been processed using a different fermentation method. With every other variable held constant, each cup reveals how fermentation alone can transform flavour, aroma, body, and acidity.

To expand the experience, we've paired the collection with two coffees from Diego Bermúdez's El Paraíso in Colombia. Renowned for pushing the boundaries of coffee processing, these coffees showcase how innovative fermentation techniques can unlock entirely new expressions of flavour, offering a glimpse into what's possible when tradition meets experimentation.
