Here's how we brew this specially commissioned coffee from a legendary Colombian producer—Camilo Torres by Manhattan!
Manhattan’s relationship with experimental producer Diego Bermudez has evolved into a creative partnership. After they asked Diego to create a coffee with a pink fruit profile, he spent six months in R&D, combining industrial fermentation with a “thermal shock” stage—washing the coffee cherries in hot and cold water—with shockingly delicious results.
We tasted berries, sweet cream, stone fruit, and a hazelnut finish, with a rich pomegranate fragrance.
