The Origin

In the lush hills of Huila, there grows a special coffee variety known as Pink Bourbon. This Pink Bourbon Creation comes from two farms, Los Pinos and La Primavera, nestled in the Acevedo municipality. These farms are meticulously managed by dedicated farmers Edier Perdomo and Diego Horta.

The Pink Bourbon cherries undergo a 24-hour pre-fermentation in cherry, followed by a 36-hour anaerobic fermentation in bags, still in their mucilage. Finally, the beans are carefully dried on raised beds for 15 days. This meticulous process results in a coffee that's both clean and vibrant, with a pronounced fruitiness and complexity.

The process

  1. Selective Harvesting: Only the perfectly ripe, pink-hued cherries are hand-picked, ensuring exceptional quality from the start.


  2. Pre-Fermentation: The cherries undergo a 24-hour pre-fermentation in cherry, initiating the development of complex flavors.
  3. Anaerobic Fermentation: The cherries are then transferred to bags for a 36-hour anaerobic fermentation, still in their mucilage. This controlled environment, snug in mucilage blankets, enhances the coffee's sweetness and unique characteristics.
  4. Drying: Finally, the beans are carefully dried on raised beds for 15 days, reaching the optimal moisture level for roasting.
