It's also delicious as the base for cappuccinos and flat whites where it reminds us of blackberry cobbler. We brew it at the cafe on the aeropress with a medium fine grind and a water temperature of 93.5 degrees Celsius. Rest: 1 week minimum, 2 is better. This blackberry co-fermet from the womderful Sebastian Ramirez uses a unique technique that blends the flavor of blackberries with the flavour profile inherent in the coffee beans to result in a blackberry forward but highly balanced cup. This coffee stands out for its tartaric acidity, achieved through controlled fermentation, where the temperature is carefully regulated. After the coffee is depulped, a thermal shock with hot water is applied to halt the fermentation process and lock in the flavors developed up to that point. This innovative method creates a sensory experience reminiscent of fresh blackberry jam, with hints of chocolate sweetness and a touch of blueberries, offering a complex and sophisticated flavor profile. 6oz/170g bags
