After harvesting, a flotation technique separates out any empty or flawed cherries, ensuring that only the most perfect cherries move forward. Next, these cherries undergo dry fermentation in closed tanks for three days, allowing the sugars and natural compounds to start developing complex flavors. Once pulped, the coffee begins a unique journey into co-fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this next phase, the coffee is immersed in a carefully prepared mix of concentrated glucose juice and ripe mango. Juan Puerta, our co-fermentation partner and a self-made expert in this area, calls this approach “osmotic dehydration,” an intricate two-day process designed to draw flavors into the coffee, resulting in a bright, layered profile that’s as complex as it is refreshing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe coffee then moves to traditional sun dryers, where it spends around 15 days under the Colombian sun, drying evenly and developing depth in every bean. This method brings out a rounded sweetness and depth while maintaining the unmistakable mango influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJUAN PUERTA AND SENS COFFEE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coffee is a product of our collaboration with Juan Puerta, whom we affectionately call “the master of co-fermentation.” With the skill and innovation of Fernando Montoya at Sens Coffee, Juan is transforming Castillo—a classic Colombian variety with a gentle profile—into something extraordinary by adding local fruits and florals. His process with mango highlights a rich, nuanced approach to coffee that marries tradition with a progressive, adventurous spirit. We’re incredibly proud to showcase Juan’s work as it represents the best in co-fermented coffee, thanks in part to the connections and import support of Yellow Rooster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINNOVATION AND TRADITION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn specialty coffee, the balance between honoring tradition and embracing innovation is crucial. Juan exemplifies this balance, pushing the boundaries of what coffee can taste like while staying true to the integrity of natural, chemical-free ingredients. Co-fermentation, as Juan practices, is about using local knowledge, natural fruit, and meticulous timing to create a new experience in coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile some see co-fermentation as controversial, we view it as an opportunity to support producers and introduce new drinkers to the wider world of coffee possibilities. By embracing this method, we’re supporting the sustainability and growth of producers like Juan. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Resident Coffee","offers":[{"title":"10oz","offer_id":50004938195221,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/0805\/3269\/files\/TransparancyPNGResidentJuanPuerta.png?v=1782851356","url":"https:\/\/resident.coffee\/products\/colombia-juan-puerta-mango-1","provider":"Resident Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
