La Primavera | For Pour Over

Roaster Notes:

I am so pleased to have this juicy, single varietal on our lineup. It is the perfect coffee to carry us into the Spring. The first impression this coffee offers is that of a wonderful aroma. One where sweet tarts are made of jasmine. That candied sweetness is echoed throughout the sip. Imagine a fresh, Spring afternoon. You’re indulging in crisp watermelon and your mom brings you some sweet, hibiscus tea on the side. That is the experience I feel drinking this coffee. The whole journey is rounded out by the linger of soft pear dancing in honey. What a luxurious coffee we are welcoming to a pour over board near you.

"HISTORY: 

Once upon a time in the lush hills of Huila, Colombia, there was a special coffee variety known as Pink Bourbon. Legend has it that this unique bean, with its distinctive pink hue, was born from a fortuitous cross between the Red and Yellow Bourbon varieties. Blessed with rich volcanic soil and a perfect altitude, Huila proved to be the ideal playground for this vibrant coffee to thrive. The Pink Bourbon quickly captured the hearts of local farmers with its exceptional cup profile, boasting flavors of sweet caramel, delicate florals, and a hint of tropical fruitiness. Its ability to withstand the region's diverse microclimates and adapt to varying altitudes made it a darling among growers in Huila, who lovingly tended to their coffee plants, nurturing them with care and dedication. Today, the Pink Bourbon continues to flourish in Huila, a testament to the harmonious marriage between nature's gifts and the labor of passionate coffee cultivators.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION: 

The process of the Pink Bourbon Creation coffee begins with the meticulous selection of ripe Pink Bourbon cherries, ensuring exceptional quality from the farms of Los Pinos and La Primavera in Huila, managed by farmers Edier Perdomo and Diego Horta. The beans undergo a 24-hour pre-fermentation in cherry, followed by a 36-hour anaerobic fermentation in bags, snug in mucilage blankets, which enhances their unique flavor profile. The drying process takes place on raised beds for 15 days, ensuring optimal moisture levels. This semi-washed process results in a vibrant and complex flavor profile with notes of citric acid, floral, green apple, green tea, and tangerine. Pink Bourbon Creation coffee exemplifies the dedication and expertise in coffee processing, offering a distinctive and delightful coffee experience."
