While coffee flavor is dependent on myriad factors from <\/span>cultivar<\/a> to <\/span>roast degree<\/a> to brewing style and beyond, primary coffee processing \u2013 <\/span>fermentation<\/a> \u2013 is responsible for the creation of major identifiable flavors in basically every coffee.<\/span><\/p>\n If you were to set two coffees in front of a trained taster, one tasting like ripe blackberries and the other tasting like fresh orange and caramel, the taster would likely predict that the berry-flavored coffee was a natural and the citrusy coffee was traditionally washed. In a world where traditional styles of processing are the only ones available, that taster would likely be correct.<\/span><\/p>\n With the advent of unique fermentation techniques, however, our flavor palate has expanded and overlapping styles of processing may create uncommon, unexpected, or simply unpredictable flavors that defy easy categorization.<\/span><\/p>\n However, it\u2019s still probably true that traditionally processed washed coffees will produce the mildest flavors. Container-loads of generic 82 point washed coffees tasting like caramel, cacao, nuts, and only the vaguest of fruits are loaded onto trucks and ocean liners every day of the year. This is true in part because processes like depulping, fermenting, and washing coffee were originally utilized as means to an end \u2013 a functional step that aided efficiencies in preservation and shipping.<\/span><\/p>\n Yet, because of excitement \u2013 much of it fairly new to our industry \u2013 around the flavor potential of fermentation, the line of excellence and failure has been blurred with respect to flavors which fifteen or twenty years ago would have been rejected as \u201coverly fermented.\u201d If the coffee tastes boozy and winey without cup variation, and was crafted with intent, then we can generally accept it as successful (even if we might individually find it unpalatable). Our open mindedness at the cupping table is spurred by the thought that there is surely also a market for some coffees like these, on the far reaches of the fermentation flavor spectrum.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”row” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We connect producers with roasters and ship great coffee all over the worldCoffee Fermentation Flavor Continuum Ebook By Chris KornmanWhile coffee flavor is dependent on myriad factors from cultivar to roast degree to brewing style and beyond, primary coffee processing \u2013 fermentation \u2013 is responsible for the creation of major identifiable flavors in basically every […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-182637","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/182637","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=182637"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/182637\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":182687,"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/182637\/revisions\/182687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/royalcoffee.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=182637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
