The Story Behind BLUEBERRY MUFFIN
Finca La Sirena is located in the Quindío region near Armenia, Colombia. Producer Juan David Puerta works with modern processing methods, focusing on precise fermentations to bring out exceptional flavour profiles from his coffees.
For BLUEBERRY MUFFIN, the ripe coffee cherries are carefully sorted and first undergo a controlled fermentation. After pulping and washing, the coffee undergoes a further process using glucose and blueberry extract, before being slowly dried to the desired moisture level.
An important part of the process is Osmotic Dehydration. Through a concentrated sugar solution, water is drawn out of the coffee beans. Combined with fermentation, this creates a particularly intense and clean flavour profile.
The result is an exceptional coffee with blueberry, blackberry, vanilla, and red fruit notes – sweet, floral, and juicy. A coffee for anyone who loves discovering new flavour worlds and experiencing specialty coffee in a different way.
