What is Peaberry Coffee + [What does it taste like?]

Serious Mealtimes / Erin Meister

You can’t bake a pie with these ‘berries’ but you can make a delicious cup of coffee with them. If you’ve heard the term before you might be wondering: what are peaberries and what makes them so special?

A peaberry (also called caracol or "snail" in Spanish) is a natural mutation of the coffee bean in its cherry. Normally coffee beans grow two to form a fruit flat against each other like halves of a peanut but a funny thing happens in about 5% of the world's coffee and a bean is born as an only child.
