Castillo Ginger reflects the Bermudez family’s drive to push coffee processing beyond tradition. By combining carefully selected cherries with a controlled fermentation that incorporates natural spices and custom yeast cultures, they’ve created a cup that highlights notes of black tea, lime, cardamom, and lemongrass.
