Diego Bermudez Koji-Fermented Maragogype Coffee

Experience the innovation of Diego Bermudez with this exceptional Koji-fermented Maragogype, a coffee that pushes the boundaries of processing and flavor. Grown at 1,960 meters at Finca El Paraiso in Colombia, this unique variety is known as the "elephant bean" for its unusually large size and it delivers a refined and complex cup with unparalleled depth.

The Koji fermentation process introduces Aspergillus oryzae, a fermentation culture traditionally used in sake and miso production, to break down sugars and enhance fruit-forward flavors. This method amplifies the coffee's natural sweetness and floral aromatics, resulting in a vibrant and layered cup.

In every sip, expect lush notes of apricot and nectarine, complemented by bright lemongrass and a delicate wildflower honey finish. The coffee’s silky mouthfeel and structured acidity make it an unforgettable experience, perfect for those who appreciate precision and innovation in coffee processing.

Best brewed as a pour-over or filter coffee, this light roast showcases the incredible potential of Maragogype when combined with cutting-edge fermentation techniques. Diego Bermudez’s Koji-fermented Maragogype is more than just a coffee; It’s a testament to craftsmanship, experimentation, and the pursuit of extraordinary flavors.
