Pink Bourbon Washed

$

9.5 /lb

Sebastian is a big fan of Bourbon Rosado. The washed process is one of the cleanest and most balanced in his portfolio. This coffee undergoes no cherry fermentation; it is depulped immediately after harvesting and fermented for 24 to 36 hours before being washed and dried. This is where it all begins—floral and sweet notes spark his imagination to determine which instruments on his farm can bring out the best potential for the rest of the processes on his portfolio.

About the farm

El Placer

Sebastian's farm operates as a processing facility rather than a traditional coffee farm. In the 1980s, it was a large coffee estate in Quindío, but today, only half of its original production remains active. He oversees the purchase of cherries grown on the farm and sources select specialty varieties from Huila—currently, his Geisha and some Pink Bourbon come from there. Sebastian is responsible for processing and developing flavor profiles, ensuring the highest quality in every batch. Additionally, he has recently acquired a new farm, where he plans to focus on cultivating more exclusive varietals such as wush wush, Sl 28, etc. that are not easily grown in his region.
