- About this Coffee:
This year's Beekeeper features a unique single-origin community blend developed through the Young Producer Program in partnership with Unblended. Led by expert producers Andres Cardona and Carolina Ramirez, this mentorship-based initiative empowers young coffee producers to master and refine experimental processing techniques. The final lot combines small batches from Antioquia, Quindio, and Huila, creating a consistent profile characterized by fruit-forward and chocolaty notes. To further enhance its depth and consistency, the blend incorporates Sebastian Ramirez Red Fruits coffee, which undergoes a rigorous 120-hour double-fermentation process involving strawberries and wine yeast.
Why it tastes great:
The inclusion of Sebastian Ramirez Red Fruits coffee elevates this blend. Through a 120-hour double-fermentation with strawberries and wine yeast, it gains a depth and consistency that is truly unparalleled.
