Coffee Specs

Pink bourbon is a relatively new variety of coffee, original to Huila and only cultivated intentionally within the last fifteen years or so. Initially thought to be a mutation of bourbon, recent genetic research suggests that "pink bourbon" is not a member of the bourbon group at all. Instead, it appears to have a close relationship with Ethiopian landraces—echoing what we've learned about other mysterious, high quality varieties appearing in the Americas like chiroso and gesha.

    Decent but pricey

    While I typically enjoy roasts from Columbia, this one didn't feel worth the higher cost. When brewed in a French press, the fruity flavors were very, very subtle and not as pronounced as I'd like them to be.

    WOW! This is shockingly good coffee!

    Excellent work! My Chemex has been working overtime since this coffee arrived, and I don't see that slowing down anytime soon. As a matter of fact, I'm going to order a couple more bags to keep this first one company!
