Four fermentations.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe're incredibly proud to be part of this unique project, giving coffee lovers the opportunity to taste how fermentation alone can shape the final cup. Even more exciting, everyone who purchases a set will have the opportunity to join a live online cupping hosted by James Hoffmann on 3 October, where coffee lovers from around the world will taste and discuss these four coffees together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll four coffees come from Finca San Miguel Urias in Guatemala's genuine Antigua Valley, owned by Hector and Lilian Leal and processed under the guidance of fermentation specialist Lucia Solis. Every lot is from the same harvest, the same varieties (approximately 85% Caturra, 15% H1 with a small amount of Bourbon), and processed identically apart from one variable: the fermentation method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFermentation is an essential step in washed coffee processing, helping remove the sticky fruit surrounding the seed before drying. But it is also one of the biggest opportunities to influence flavour. By changing only the microorganisms responsible for fermentation, producers can create remarkably different cup profiles while keeping everything else exactly the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis project allows you to taste those differences side by side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Dates\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoasting:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 September\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e 21 September (your order will not be shipped before that, including other items in your order)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLive Online Cupping with James Hoffmann:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 October\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Four Coffees\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMechanically Washed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mucilage is removed mechanically with little to no fermentation, resulting in a clean, transparent cup that highlights the coffee's natural character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWild Fermentation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNaturally occurring yeasts and bacteria drive fermentation, creating a complex and expressive cup with vibrant fruit and floral notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYeast Inoculated\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA selected yeast strain guides fermentation, enhancing sweetness, fruit intensity and aromatic complexity while increasing consistency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLactobacillus Inoculated\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelected lactic acid bacteria create a creamier texture, softer acidity and a beautifully rounded sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Box comes with \u003cstrong\u003e4 × 100g bags\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e","brand":"Ripsnorter","offers":[{"title":"Tasting Box (4 x 100g bags)","offer_id":54577336484179,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/1765\/1390\/files\/fermentationproject_1f44e4a4-c836-4104-a973-06361d95ab3f.jpg?v=1787044313","url":"https:\/\/ripsnorter.nl\/products\/guatemala-james-hoffmans-fermentation-project-tasting-box","provider":"Ripsnorter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
