Description
El Porvenir is the life’s work of Juan Jimenez, a second-generation farmer with over 40 years of experience. His passion and precision have made him a quiet force in Colombia’s specialty coffee scene.
Origin
Nestled in Palestina, just south of Huila, El Porvenir spans 16 hectares of high-altitude terrain—ideal for cultivating exceptional coffee. This microregion’s climate and soil create the perfect stage for vibrant, complex flavors to develop.
Variety
Juan’s farm is home to several unique cultivars, including the coveted Pink Bourbon. This variety, an intriguing genetic mutation, delivers bright, expressive flavors and has earned Juan acclaim and awards across the industry.
Process
This lot is washed processed, a method prized for clarity and balance. After careful picking and sorting, the cherries are depulped, fermented to remove mucilage, then washed and dried. The result is a clean, structured cup where nuanced fruit and sparkling acidity shine.
Flavour Notes: Fresh Lime, Honeycrisp Apple, Raw Sugar, Star Anise
What is the roast recency?
Onyx recommend brewing with beans that are at least two weeks off roast. All beans are roasted to peak flavour at around 8-12 weeks. We have the option to either purchase standard beans (at least 2 weeks but no longer than 6 weeks off roast), or rested beans (at least 7 weeks off roast, no longer than 12). For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.
