The Fermentation Project

😱 We've only got a limited supply available on-presale so once we're out, we're out! We didn't think twice. When The Fermentation Project opened its doors to roasters worldwide, inviting anyone curious enough to explore how fermentation actually shapes what ends up in your cup, we jumped at the chance. Funky, nerdy, mad-scientist vibe coffee is exactly what FUNK is here for, and this project has let us bring fermentation straight to you. Led by James Hoffmann and Lucia Solis, The Fermentation Project takes a single lot of coffee and asks one thing: how much does fermentation actually change what we taste? Does each track really have a new groove to it? Flip the record and let your tastebuds dance through the four processes. Close your eyes and listen to what you're experiencing. The same farm, same variety, and same altitude. The only thing that changes is what happens to the bean after it's picked, which is exactly the kind of detail we live for. In typical FUNK fashion, there's a twist: there isn't a single tasting note on any of these 100g cans. Not an oversight, a choice. Put on a set of headphones, close your eyes, and taste it cup against cup. Land on your own opinion about what each process actually did. Brew the baseline first, then work through the three fermented coffees side by side. It's up to you to decide what each one is spinning. Finish off your experience with a custom Fermentation Project hoodie, designed by the FUNK team just for this release. The October 3rd Event: Don't drink your way through the whole set right away. The Fermentation Project is hosting a live tasting on October 3rd. If you're joining us at FUNK Coffee Bar for the live stream, we'll be providing The Fermentation Project for a group cupping, all you need to do is RSVP.
