COLOMBIA EL DIVISO PINK BOURBON

Sourcing fine coffee from Colombia has never been easier when we team up with Colombia Coffee Hunter. Spearhead by Carolina, a Q grader and profound coffee buyer, has been intensively sourcing the best on each harvest throughout Colombia. One of the most discussed topics between us is Pink Bourbon, a coffee varietal that originated from a small department in Huila, Colombia.

The story begins on the small farm of a local farmer named Edgar Motta, who noticed there were odd-coloured cherries on his farm. The cherries have a colour combination mix of orange and yellow that gives them  pinkish look. The coffee surprisingly has outstanding coffee quality on the cupping table, and Edgar decided to cultivate this new varietal on a specific lot to avoid further coffee plant mutations.

Pink Bourbon is a natural mutation of the Bourbon coffee varietal that is famously known as a sweet type of coffee. Except it has a remarkable acidity quality that always gives coffee tasters the experience of enjoying bright and refreshing fruits like pomelo, grapefruit, or guava. Either through a fully washed or natural process, pink bourbon has a high level of sweetness that effortlessly delivers a well-balanced taste of coffee.

Our latest pink Bourbon coffee selection is sourced from the El Diviso farm owned by local sallholder farmer Arnulfo Hoyos Reyes. This is an exceptional example of a fully washed process that showcases the true potential of the Pink Bourbon coffee varietal. Clean flavour, pointed flavour, crisp acidity, and solid texture make Pink Bourbon an impeccable specialty coffee. This coffee comes in limited quantity, making the experience of enjoying good coffee memorable.
