LIMITED RELEASE: THE FERMENTATION PROJECT TASTING KIT
What happens when the same coffee takes four different fermentation paths?
The Fermentation Project is a collaboration between world-renowned coffee educator James Hoffmann and fermentation specialist Lucia Solis, exploring four fermentation methods using the same coffee from San Miguel Urias Farm in Guatemala’s Antigua Valley. The Fermentation Project Tasting Kit lets you taste all four side by side and discover how each fermentation method transforms the cup. Why Fermentation? Learn more about the project here!
This collaborative project will lead to a global live tasting on Saturday, October 3rd, livestreamed on James Hoffmann’s YouTube channel.
Each set includes four 20g whole-bean sample bags:
• 1x 20g of Mechanically Demucilaged (No Fermentation)
• 1x 20g Wild Fermentation
• 1x 20g Lactobacillus Inoculated Fermentation
• 1x 20g Yeast Inoculated Fermentation
All four coffees come from Finca San Miguel Urias in Antigua, Guatemala, primarily Caturra, with some H1 and a little Bourbon. The same lot was harvested and processed side-by-side using different fermentation methods, then washed and patio dried.
