M-03 - CASTILLO - DIEGO BERMUDEZ 🇨🇴

Colombia, Castillo, M-03
Diego Bermudez | Finca El Paraíso

Process:
Double-Stage Anaerobic Fermentation with specialised cultures and thermal shock wash

Flavour Notes:
Coconut milk • cinnamon • apple pie
Creamy, spiced, bright and unusually structured

This is not just coffee.
This is precision fermentation engineering.

From Finca El Paraíso in Cauca, Colombia, Diego Bermudez continues to push the boundaries of post-harvest processing - treating coffee more like a controlled lab environment than a farm. The M-03 lot is part of his advanced bioprocessing series, where fermentation variables are dialed with scientific intent to build specific flavour outcomes.

Why this coffee matters:

Diego isn’t chasing trends, he’s redefining processing.

You’re tasting:
Controlled fermentation science
Repeatable flavour profiles
The future direction of high-end specialty coffee

Howzit Folks! 👋

Due to the increase cost of green coffee, we will be updating our pricing.

This changed allows us to continue sourcing quality green coffee, roasting to the standards you expect and supporting the people throughout our supply chain who make this work possible.

The updated pricing will take effect on 6 February 2025. We’re happy to share a revised price list or discuss any questions you may have.

We truly appreciate your partnership and continued support.
