Legend has it that this unique bean, with it's 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. The process of the Pink Bourbon Creation begins with the meticulous selection of ripe 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 flavour profile. 

The drying process takes place on raised beds for 15 days, ensuring optimal moisture levels. The semi-washed process results in a vibrant and complex flavour profile.
