Juicy, herbal, and with an unconventional berry profile—that’s this blend from People Possession. Blackberry, rosemary, black tea, and mint come together in the cup, giving the coffee a sweet, fresh, and slightly herbal character. Blackberry brings a darker fruitiness, black tea adds a drier and more elegant note, while rosemary and mint shift the entire profile to a cooler and more aromatically pronounced level. It’s a filter coffee for those who enjoy coffee with a twist—one that’s not just fruity but also has a fresh, herbal edge.
It’s a blend of coffees from Colombia and Ethiopia, which People Possession has named Blackberry And Mint (BAM). The Colombian portion brings sweetness, body, and a more pronounced fruitiness, while the Ethiopian portion helps lighten the profile and add a tea-like, fresher note. The result is a coffee that feels playful yet remains approachable and easy to drink.
The processing combines honey co-fermentation with wine yeast and blackberries along with the washed method. The co-fermented portion helps create a more intense berry character and a sweeter fruity base, while the washed component maintains the clarity, lightness, and structure of the entire blend. The variety used is Castillo, which provides the blend with a stable foundation and works well with more distinctive processing methods. The result is a filter coffee with notes of blackberries, rosemary, black tea, and mint—it’s fresh, aromatic, and quite different from classic fruity blends.
