DETAILS

  • Producer: Luz Stella Rivera
  • Farm: El Oregon
  • Region: Santa María, Huila, Colombia
  • Varietal: Pink Bourbon
  • Process: Washed
  • Altitude: 1,750 masl

INTRO
This lot continues SEY's exploration of Santa María in Huila, and it is their first year working with Luz Rivera. In the cup: raspberry, citrus, and wildflower honey.

THE PRODUCER
The lot was shown to SEY by their exporting partners in Huila, and Luz Rivera's coffee was among the higher-scoring lots from the samples received this year. SEY knows very little about her yet and looks forward to visiting her farm and learning about her process next season.

Pink Bourbon is a relatively new variety grown mainly in and around Huila. It has been identified genetically as an Ethiopian landrace, but nothing more specific is known until there is a larger genetic database.

THE PROCESS
The Washed process for this lot involves:

🍒 Hand-picking — cherries harvested at peak ripeness
💧 Floating — floated to further remove defects
🌙 In-cherry hold — held in-cherry for 24 hours
🌱 De-pulping — cherries de-pulped
⏱️ Dry fermentation — dry-fermented for 48 hours
🚿 Washing — washed clean after fermentation
☀️ Raised-bed drying — dried on raised beds until moisture reaches 10.5%

THE CUP
Bright and sweet: raspberry leads, with citrus through the middle and a wildflower honey finish.

How it works The fruit is removed from the coffee seed. Water and fermentation then help clear away the sticky layer before the seed is dried.

Typical influence Washed coffees are often described as clean and bright, with clear flavours, lively acidity and a crisp finish.

About this variety

Pink Bourbon, also sold as Rosado, is often chosen for a bright, floral and fruit-forward cup. Tropical fruit, citrus and stone fruit are useful reference points, but the lot’s own notes should lead.

Why this one is different
  • Colombia
  • Huila
  • 1750 masl
  • Washed

Colombian Pink Bourbon often feels perfumed and lifted, with orange blossom, rose, bright citrus, peach or tropical fruit and a silky, tea-like finish. The reviewed coffees range from clean washed lots to naturals and co-ferments, where processing can push the cup towards candy, spice or deeper fruit. The producer's tasting notes are the best guide to this particular bag.

Washed processing can make acidity and variety character easier to read, although fermentation and drying choices still matter.

A little background

Pink Bourbon, also called Rosado, became prominent through Colombian specialty producers and is now grown across several regions. The reviewed selection shows why it is sought after: even with very different processes, floral aromatics, lively fruit and a refined texture appear repeatedly.

Identification note Pink Bourbon or Rosado is a widely used Colombian name, but genetic testing shows it is not Bourbon. Some tested lots also contained mixed plant material, so the producer's identification remains important for each coffee.

Classification Reported cultivar

Technical lineage Recent genetic testing places tested Pink Bourbon material with Ethiopian landrace coffee rather than the Bourbon family. The familiar name is retained because it is the name used by producers and roasters.

Variety is a guide, not a flavour guarantee. Lot notes are more specific.
