Wilton applies advanced fermentation techniques from wine and beer to coffee, creating world-class experimental specialty lots that have earned repeated international recognition, establishing it as a benchmark in modern Colombian coffee.

Yeast Heat Shock Proceessing

This batch of Yeast Thermal Shock employs an ultra-precise innovative process. It begins with hand-harvesting, followed by double screening by size and density, then dual sterilization using ozonated water and ultraviolet light to ensure zero contamination.
Fresh cherries are placed into an anaerobic bioreactor and fermented at 18°C for 52 hours, during which Saccharomyces pastorianus yeast is added to awaken deep aromatic layers.
After depulping, the mucilage is recovered and enters a second stage of 21°C anaerobic mucilage fermentation for 48 hours, bringing the total fermentation time to 68 hours.
This is followed by the signature thermal shock washing: first, 40°C hot water is used to open the bean pores and absorb secondary aromas, then instantly locked in with a 12°C cold-water shock to fix the flavor profile.
Finally, controlled drying at 38°C for 48 hours perfectly stabilizes the layered notes of blueberry, passion fruit, peach, and plum, delivering an exceptionally clean, rich, and unprecedented depth of fruit aromatics.

Design Concept

Packaging features a soft lavender-purple base, bursting with street graffiti and pop art energy. At the center stands a sleek gray-blue cat beside vibrant pink roses, its emerald-green eyes gleaming mysteriously. Explosive passion fruit and blueberries burst around it, echoing the wild, fermented fruit flavors unlocked by the yeast.
The cat embodies mystery, elegance, and just the right touch of rebellion—perfectly mirroring this bean’s ultra-clean yet insanely explosive fruit bomb. Graffiti-style typography blends with splashes of ink and dripping paint, capturing the dramatic thermal shock: that extreme temperature swing from scalding heat to ice-cold that instantly locks in the berry essence.
Bold, playful, and full of attitude, the design fuses tropical romance with modern street culture—inviting young coffee adventurers to dive into Wilton’s fermentation magic. Every brew feels like cracking open a vivid lavender-purple fruit juice party.
