Colombia Passion Fruit Coffee | Rodrigo Sanchez 

A tropical explosion. This groundbreaking co-fermented coffee from Rodrigo Sanchez undergoes extended fermentation with real passion fruit pulp, delivering an intensely bright, tart, and exotic cup.

The Origin Story: Passion Fruit Coffee

From the pioneering hands of Rodrigo Sanchez in Colombia, this lot is a groundbreaking example of flavor infusion. This Passion Fruit Coffee is created using a specialized Extended Fermentation method where the coffee cherries undergo a co-fermentation process with concentrated passion fruit pulp. This highly controlled process naturally instills the vivid tropical notes into the bean, resulting in an exceptionally bright and intensely flavored filter roast coffee.

Bean Identity

Roast Philosophy

This coffee is roasted to a light Filter Roast profile to strictly preserve the complex, highly volatile tropical notes created during the extended fermentation. The light development prevents the caramelization of the natural sugars, allowing the vibrant acidity and the signature fruity and sour character to dominate the cup.

Degassing Advice (Expert Tip)

Due to the extreme process of Extended Fermentation, these beans need sufficient time to stabilize. We recommend allowing this Passion Fruit Coffee to rest for a minimum of 10 to 14 days post-roast date to ensure optimal flavor clarity and a clean, less volatile extraction.
