Story

Triangle Accent

The latest harvest of this processing experiment features aromas of candied almond and mango, with notes of cocoa nib and a touch of blood orange in the cup. High-toned wild strawberry acidity gives way to a creamy body, with cedar and milk chocolate lingering in the finish.

Nando Diaz's Pineapple Process begins by fermenting about 70 fresh pineapples for 48 hours to build a colony of wild yeast and bacteria. This will be enough to produce ten 69kg bags of green coffee. The depulped coffee is placed in a large fermentation tank and the fermented fruit is stirred in, followed by the juice (so it doesn’t sink right to the bottom). The coffee and fruit ferment together for a further 48 hours before the tank is drained and the coffee is washed.
