Pink Bourbon Bundle (Washed + Natural)
Pink Bourbon: Two Expressions, One Variety
Explore how processing and fermentation shape flavor through two coffees from the same variety: Pink Bourbon
This bundle features two coffees grown from Diego Horta; the same genetic variety but processed in two completely different ways.
The first follows a traditional washed process, highlighting clarity, florals, and the intrinsic characteristics of Pink Bourbon. The second undergoes a natural process with extended fermentation, creating a more expressive cup with amplified fruit notes, sweetness, and complexity.
By tasting these coffees side by side, you’ll discover how post-harvest decisions can transform the final cup in same variety and origin.
Same producer, Same variety, Two different paths, Two completely different results! A great way to sample and save, each bundle includes one bag of washed pink bourbon and one natural pink bourbon.
The variety
Pink Bourbon is a unique variety believed to be a natural mutation of Bourbon, discovered in San Adolfo, Huila. It is known for its distinctive pinkish-salmon colored fruit and wide leaves similar to the Gesha plant. The coffee offers clean floral and citrus notes, with a high sugar content, making it a favorite among coffee lovers.
The producer
Diego, one of the youngest coffee farmers at just 29, inherited his coffee profession from his father, Martín. Together, they’ve explored various experimental processes to enhance coffee quality. Recently, they've added exotic varieties like Pacamara and Pink Bourbon to their offerings. Supporting young producers like Diego is important to us, especially as many young people move from rural areas to cities for better opportunities. Diego (along with Sergio, Juan and Manolo of Desnudo Coffee) recently completed his Specialty Coffee Association grading certification, the highest achievement for coffee tasters there is!
