Part of what we specialize in at Promethium is procuring coffees in an eccentric manner. Meaning the coffees we find, roast and present are unique in their nature - often bookmarking moments in our industry or new age thinking + innovation. In the case of this Guava coffee, it's the latter, marking a unique turn in processing.
We've been aware of Juan Puerta's advanced processing work for years, first experiencing his beloved Panela Sticky coffee years ago from friends in Germany. Ever since then he's been on our short list of figures in our industry to highlight - this summer we finally get that chance to.
This coffee has undergone a moderate intervention, being fermented with mandarin oranges from the surrounding citrus farms in Quindio Colombia
