Caficultor
• ColombiaBartender Dianna Alejandra Bernal of Colombia brings new meaning to reducing food waste by repurposing a coffee by-product as key ingredient in her Ketel One ‘Caficultor’ cocktail.
- Did you know that we only consume 20% of the coffee fruit? That is, the seed of the fruit. The rest corresponds largely to what is called mucilage and is used as fertilizer or discarded, causing damage to water tributaries."Caficultor" is a cocktail with an interest in helping the coffee farms, made with concentrated mucilage and garnished with a chip of the same product. Ketel One inspired this project, due to the use of wheat that does not affect the environment. With the same idea I want to contribute to agriculture and gastronomy in my country. I found in the
- mucilage, interesting flavors and ways of using it, that can contribute to the profitability of those who grow coffee and reuse their waste. Giving this by-product the opportunity it deserves is a good start for making full use of the coffee cherry.
Taste it for yourself.
