01:29:20,355 which is not commonly associated with coffee, 1786 01:29:20,389 --> 01:29:22,598 but rather with grapes. 1787 01:29:22,633 --> 01:29:24,600 Today we'll be combining those stone fruit like flavors 1788 01:29:24,635 --> 01:29:26,533 to vest new ones 1789 01:29:26,568 --> 01:29:29,260 that are more tropical and exotic. 1790 01:29:30,882 --> 01:29:32,194 Charged with nitrous 1791

01:29:37,164 --> 01:29:38,718 flavors from the hops, 1795 01:29:38,752 --> 01:29:40,375 making a more balanced drink. 1796 01:29:40,409 --> 01:29:42,653 When you get the beverage, 1797 01:29:42,687 --> 01:29:44,482 you'll notice the flavors have been transformed 1798 01:29:46,622 --> 01:29:48,210 dramatically. 1799 01:29:49,004 --> 01:29:51,351 Intense bergamot aroma, 1800 01:29:51,386 -->
