      About the farmer(s)

      Sebastian Gomez Pink Bourbon [washed] — Colombia

      Sebastian had been living in Bogota for 8 years before returning home to take over the management of his father's coffee farm.
      His father had been growing commodity coffee, but Sebastian convinced him to plant coffees that receive a better income, like Geisha & this Pink Bourbon lot.
      Sebastian & his wife now take care of all the farm & administration work.
      After harvesting, the coffee cherries were floated & hand-sorted to remove defects. The cherries were de-pulped, fermented under water for 30 hours, washed & then sun-dried on raised beds at temperatures not exceeding 35℃.

      This lot is 100% Pink Bourbon, a natural mutation of Typica originating from what was called Île Bourbon. The colour of the cherries can be either yellow, red, orange, or in this case pink when ripe. The "pink" mutation was first noticed at a farm in San Adolfo, Huila, Colombia.
