Now here's an interesting bean for you! Produced by the family owned Vergel Estate in Colombia, this brew is unique on multiple levels.
The Guava Banana offers a much fuller body than what you might expect from the region. Also, the name doesn't lie! Bursting with complexity, this brew does indeed have notes of milkshake, banana, and guava. That said, the tropical sweetness is balanced out a bit with a sharper hint of "funky fruit" and wine.
A lot of these standout qualities are thanks to the anaerobic processing method, which involves putting the coffee cherries into steel drums and depriving them of oxygen for 48-72 hours. This brief fermentation period is the magic factor that brings out a completely different flavor from the beans.
Roasted to a Full city (light) roast to fully show off the flavor, this brew is definitely a must-try if you're looking for something different!
Well, the name of this coffee is accurate. Even before brewing, it smells like fermented fruit. And it tastes exactly how it smells. It's a unique coffee, but not what I want in my morning brew. It doesn't taste terrible, but not very good either.

Smooth and fruity
First time trying and I’m very impressed. It has some nice and fruity notes, on par with some rather expensive coffees I’ve tried from other roasters.
