This is one unique coffee! We have carried only a few of these Fruit Fermentations coffees in the past, some have loved them, some have not, but a very fun and definitely unique offering for home roasters. Part high quality Colombian coffee, part melon science experiment. Flavored enough by the crazy processing that the crowd will be split on this one but we found much joy drinking it. Be ready for coffee that tastes and smells like varying levels of melon depending on the roast level.
If you love melon, this coffee will be pretty awesome. Two of our tasters love melon tastes and picked this one as the favorite. The melon tones stick right out and balance nicely with the Colombian coffee profile. Lighter roasts were interesting, some may want to try it here, the cup is bright and clean but be warned, the aromatics and flavor of the melon is very strong, it balances with a very sweet, nutty, buttery textured tone. Pretty much a guarantee one will have not tasted flavors like this in coffee before, but will be a limited crew that likes the light roast point best. We did like lighter roasts better than the pineapple offering, but all in all the cup lacked balance with some normal coffee tones. Medium roasts push the tastes much higher in our book, a little hint of citric acidity, some classic Colombian nuttiness, good body with a clear sweet melon tones, a little stronger in the aromatics but also clear in the tastes. Still unique but links more to traditional coffee tastes. Darker roasts close to second crack present nicely, but into second crack more than a pop or two did pick up a little bitter contrast.

Recommendation of a nice medium roast to present this best. If you love sweet citrus and coconut, this coffee will be pretty awesome. Two of our tasters picked this one as the favorite. The aromatics pop the coconut right out, and the lemon tones balance nicely with the Colombian coffee profile.

A very fruit forward and floral exotic Colombian. All sorts of cool unique flavors can be found in this cup from the slow dry natural processing and boutique fermentation. The brighter tones tend to range from a lemon citric component at the lighter roasts to strong stone fruit in the medium roast range. The acidity is pretty high at the lighter roasts but mellows greatly at a strong medium to dark roast. The balance of the cup comes from an almost cola-like tone that turns a bit nuttier into the darker roasts. Medium bodied, super clean with some far from traditional Colombian tones.

Intro Special – Regular Price $8.99/Lb
A good cup from light to dark but to showcase what makes these beans special, light to medium roasts will be the way to go. Light roast points are very jazzy with stronger citric/floral acidity mixing with a little soft fruit tone, pulling some balance with a sweet edged nuttiness. With the red fruit and more citric components, it makes us think pink lemonade upfront, but some were more down the tart raspberry alley. Medium roasts get fuller bodied and smoother, good nutty/chocolate like undertones with less crisp citric/floral acidity. Darker roasts will kill most of the brightness but will retain a little hint of fruit as the cup cools. Much more chocolaty and robust at the darker roast points, potent brew, can have a little stout like bitter aftertaste but will hit the tongue on the sweeter side.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.99.$7.99Current price is: $7.99.$8.99/lb$7.99/lb -

Regular Price $7.49/Lb
A lovely, crisp, and clean, not overly fruity natural processed. We thought it best right around the medium roast ballpark but will make fans lighter or darker depending on your personal taste preference. Lighter roasting is a bit higher acidity, lemony and floral with some grape skin like fruitiness coming through. A bit more herbal spice right at first crack, needs a longer setup time to shine but will provide delicate chocolaty notes with much wilder acidity and fruity tones. Medium roasts were tasty without the wait! Balanced, tasty, and clean after 24 hours. A pronounced chocolaty factor, medium bodied, hints of crisp acidity backed with a little soft fruit tone and spice. Wonderfully smooth and delicate for a Congo coffee. Dark roasts were tasty right off the bat as well, roasty and stronger but with a sweeter then average edge. The smokiness does compliment the strong chocolaty undertones.Price:Price: Original price was: $7.49.$6.49Current price is: $6.49.$7.49/lb$6.49/lb -

A super clean lot from the Congo; Amazing considering all the trouble this year in the Kivu; beautiful prep on these beans. Great floral and soft fruit tones upfront with a bit of brightness balanced with a tea spiced chocolaty factor, not too overwhelming or potent like some Africans. Smooth with almost a brown sugar hint at a strong medium roast. Pretty much everyone will love this coffee, a great everyday drinker.

A wonderfully clean and exotic cup. Not nearly as herbal spice noted as its Yirgacheffe cousins. A bit of lemony floral acidity upfront quickly fading into nice red fruit notes and balancing with a smooth chocolate undertone that lingers in the aftertaste. Light roasts will promote much more citrus acidity but also leave the most red fruit tones in the cup. A longer setup helps with the lighter roasts for the citric tones will fade over time allowing more of the fruitiness and darker tones of the cup to shine. Medium roasts really bring forth the cleaner chocolaty tones in the cup reducing the fruit and citric tones to just a hint. Darker roasts burn out the fruit and acidity leaving a strong slightly edgy bakers chocolate cup with smoke smokier highlights.

A very sweet and fruity cup of coffee. Best at a light to medium roast. Good body with some crisp floral tones right upfront. The floral will quickly fade into strong and diverse red fruit tones, more pronounced as the cup cools. The floral/fruit will pull some balance with a chocolaty cup profile as you push into the medium roast levels, just a hint of classic Yirgacheffe tea like spice in the aftertaste.

A great example of a top rated and clean Yirg coffee. Bright, citrus, floral and soft fruit versus a chocolaty spice note, a bit tea like at lighter roast points. Very dependent on roast, one can accentuate or hide the attributes of this cup depending on roast level. Washed Ethiopians are always way fun to play around with. Lighter quicker roasts are front loaded floral and citrus with a little hint of a chocolaty tone (pretty faint), dark roasts are hefty, a bit fuller bodied with strong bakers chocolate tone and some smokiness.

Good from light to dark but we thought best at a strong medium to dark roast. Light roasts are more citric and floral with wonderful aromatics a sweet edged, a bit punchy in the citric department and very little of that wonderful chocolate tone that fuller roasts will bring. Medium roasts will bring some lovely balance to the cup, less aromatic than the light roasts, but you can still tell you have a nice Ethiopian with one sniff. A pinch of crispness upfront on top of a well developed chocolaty base tone. A unique spice note pops out, a stretch for some, but we would say slightly minty. Darker roasts are real robust, strong and semi-sweet, more bakers-chocolate like with tea like spice in the aftertaste.Price:Price: Original price was: $7.75.$6.75Current price is: $6.75.$7.75/lb$6.75/lb -

A very fruit forward, delicate and sweet cup. Best served in the light to medium roast range. At light roasts it hold up well but will be higher acidity and very fruity and winy upfront, only a hint of a darker toned contrast. Medium roasts introduce a more chocolaty balance and mute up some of the acidity making it nice for a lower acidity fan. A great mix of fruit and chocolaty factor where one can play with the balance of tones through roast level. Darker roasts are not recommended, get edgy and smoky with a little hint of fruit coming through.

Crisp, clean and fresh, a great coffee from light to dark. A less acidic Kenya with great balance, mouthfeel and depth of flavors. At light roasts it will still have some brighter citrus qualities but will not pucker ones mouth. Kenyan coffees in general can be pretty strong. It has hints of chocolate, fruit & herbal spice along with the citrus and floral. Medium roasts bring the best balance to the cup accentuating the chocolaty tones and reducing the brighter notes just a hint. Darker roasts make that classic Kenya herbal tone pop right out and is more down the potent bakers chocolate alley. Very clean with increasing body as the roast gets darker. A great balance between citrus, floral, herbal and chocolate. Easy to change the balance of these tones by roast level – a fun coffee to play around with.Price:Price: Original price was: $7.99.$6.99Current price is: $6.99.$7.99/lb$6.99/lb -

A very clean, exotic and balanced cup of coffee. Although still considered a higher acidity cup, this offering is more about the fuller body and complex darker tones. Especially at lighter roasts, one will see a more citric style acidity, comingling with a green tea like spice, clean as a whistle, but may be a little sharp for some. Medium roasts bring a more potent chocolaty cup with some floral highlights, lingering spice in the aftertaste. Darker roasts get much thicker and semi-sweet, would put in on the bakers chocolate side of things with some soft fruit and spice lingering on the tongue, a little smoky if you go real dark.

A very clean, bright and balanced cup. Best at the light to medium roast levels. At lighter roasts; one will see sweet and strong citric tones comingling with chocolate and herbal darker notes, classic premium Kenya. As the cup sets up longer one can see some greater complexity pop out with hints of soft fruit, nutty and caramel like tones. Pushing into the medium roast levels, the thickness increases and the chocolate/herbal factor will be the dominate tone in the cup hiding much of the citric and floral. Hitting 2nd crack cuts out most of the citric and will turn the cup more bakers chocolate, increasing the strength, but loosing sweetness.

A nice tasting coffee from light to dark. We thought it best right around a medium roast for daily drinking but depending on what you like, holds up well lighter or darker. Light roasts one can see the linkage to Kenya; citric and floral upfront, a sweet edge, thicker chocolate/spice undertones, hints of caramel with a little setup in the aftertaste. Not as punchy as most Kenyan offerings, but along the same line of tastes. Medium roasts really mellow the cup. Smooth most would say, a bit more neutral with just a hint of the floral and spice seen at the lighter roasts. Reminded us of a cross between the Mysore Nuggets and a nice Costa Rican coffee. Great for daily drinking. Darker roasts touching or into second crack retain the sweet edge and put a more malty/smoky taste into play with some lingering spice in the aftertaste.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.49.$7.29Current price is: $7.29.$8.49/lb$7.29/lb -

A very clean and fresh batch from Selva Negra. A little citric & floral acidity upfront, balanced with nice complex nutty & malty undertones. Light roasts are going to be a little front loaded with the brighter characteristics, a higher rated cup meaning one will notice some decent crisp acidity at the light-medium roasts. Will give great depth of flavor but may be a little sharp for some. Our favorite roast and a great everyday drinker was in the medium roast ballpark, builds more of a smooth and creamy cup with a sweet edge, reducing that perceived acidity to just a pinch. Turns much stronger, a robust cup most would say, into the darker roasts but shined nicely; fuller bodied with strong malty and smoky tones, still a sweeter edge to it which darker roast fans will love.

We thought it best right around a medium roast; balanced and sweet. Hints of sweet citric floral upfront comingle with smooth defined malt like tones, just the tiniest hint of a fruity factor in the aftertaste. Lighter roasts get much crisper, dominated with more floral citric fruit tones, lemony most would say but does still show a little malty undertone. Darker roasts cut out the more floral aspect of the cup and are very rich and smooth, more semi-sweet but still very malty, into second crack adds some complimenting smoky tones. Hard to find a bad roast point with these beans.Price: $8.95/lb - 7.75/lbPrice: $8.95 -

Good from light to dark, very different tasting dependent on roast level. If you are a very fruit forward natural fan, sticking in the light to medium roast level is recommended. Contrary to many naturals, these beans rock at the fuller roast levels as well, touching or into second crack produces a very lively cup, not super roasty with incredible depth of flavor and good balance between light and dark tones.

A very fresh and tasty African. Enjoyable at any roast level; medium to dark roast was our favorite. Medium roast points provide a smooth cup on the nutty/chocolaty side, sweet tea flavors and a hint of citric. A little herbal spice lingers in the aftertaste but very mild comparatively to most Africans. Darker roasts add complimenting roasty notes, a sweet burnt sugar and chocolaty cup that is jazzed up with a little spice, lower acidity and a fuller body.

Best at a medium to dark roast: bigger bodied and darker toned. This lot is a bit higher acidity and fuller bodied. Lighter roasts will show stronger lemony floral tones, with good body but will balance with a bit of herbal/vegetal darker tones, kind of like an African coffee, will not fully develop the nice robust chocolaty factor that fuller roasts achieve. Medium roasts are where we thought it shined, just a small hint of citric sweetness upfront with a good balance of spicy chocolate notes, unique spice, more like the Indian coffees.
