It embraces innovation in fermentation and processing while honouring classic, storied flavour profiles. Expect something fruit-forward and dynamic, yet clean and approachable. In the cup: sweet watermelon, peach, dark honey, and black tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe blend changes seasonally but is always predominantly a washed Ethiopian coffee, with the minority share reserved for co-ferments. This season's washed component (80%) comes from smallholders in the Aricha community, and the co-ferment (20%) from Sebastian Ramirez in Colombia. The idea began with an impossible choice: the classic end of coffee (Panamanian Gesha, washed Ethiopian lots, breakfast blends) or the funky end (anaerobic naturals, advanced processing experiments, co-ferments). Rather than choose, they built a blend that shows both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe blend combines a washed Ethiopian lot with a Colombian co-ferment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePairing a washed Ethiopian base with a small proportion of co-ferment is the defining structure. It's what keeps the cup balanced and striking, traditional and innovative, with the washed lot's clean peach and black tea carrying the co-ferment's watermelon and dark honey sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSweet and stone-fruited, clean yet dynamic: sweet watermelon and peach lead, with black tea sweetened by dark honey.
