This single-variety Pink Bourbon lot is sourced from 25 smallholder farmers located in the Pitalito, Palestina, Salado Blanco, and Acevedo municipalities, in the department of Huila. Due to its unique color, pickers as must pay extra attention to determine Pink Bourbon's ripeness, often resulting in loud, complex flavors.

Huila, Colombia

Originally thought to be a mutation of the Red and Yellow Bourbon varieties commonly grown in Colombia, there is now evidence to suggest Pink Bourbon is an Ethiopian landrace variety, arriving in Colombia via unclear means. Regardless, Pink Bourbon is a coffee unique in appearance and flavor profile. Farmers must carefully manage crop placements to ensure the proper cross-pollination of cherries that can range in color from light red to soft orange. During harvest, pickers must pay extra attention because determining ripeness requires some inspection and isn’t as simple as choosing only the reddest cherries. This challenging process produces complex flavors.
