We're excited to take part in this global coffee project organized by James Hoffman and Lucia Solis. This kit is composed of 100g each of 4 different whole bean coffees.

Each coffee in the kit is created from the same base material and fermented differently to isolate the impact of fermentation and processing on the coffee. These are the four methods:

  • Mechanically Demucilaged (Control, unfermented)
  • Wild Fermentation (Traditional, 48 hour submerged fermentation with local, wild microbes)
  • Lactobacillus Inoculated Fermentation (48 hour submerged fermentation with Lactobacillus)
  • Yeast Inoculated Fermentation (48 hour submerged fermentation with saccharomyces yeast)

The base material:

Finca San Miguel Urias (owned by Hector and Lilian Leal)
Guatemala Antigua

Variety: ~85% Caturra, ~15% H1 and some Bourbon
Altitude: 1460–1540 masl

There will be a live coffee tasting event with James Hoffman on October 3rd.
