Story

Triangle Accent

Our latest offering is a collaboration with our long-term direct trade partner, Nando Diaz of Finca Santa Ana in Santa Rosa, Guatemala. Nando’s relentless experimentation and exploration have led to the creation of this Pineapple Process lot. This unique processing involves fermenting the pineapple fruit and juice for 24 hours, allowing a colony of wild yeasts and bacteria to develop. This starter is then added to the de-pulped coffee seeds, enhancing the microbial colony during the fermentation process. Afterward, the coffee undergoes standard washing. This distinctive processing results in a cup with a delightful array of fruit flavors, including yellow plum, grapefruit, tamarind, and toasted coconut. The sweetness of brown sugar and candied pecans lingers as a salted caramel finish.
