Roaster notes

Colombia — Juan Jiménez Peña Finca El Porvenir Pink Bourbon (Washed)

Tastes Like — 🍑 Peach • 🍋 Lemonade • 🍈 Tropical Fruit

DETAILS

  • Producer: Juan Jiménez Peña
  • Farm: El Porvenir
  • Region: Palestina, Huila, Colombia
  • Varietal: Pink Bourbon
  • Process: Washed
  • Elevation: 1,700 masl
  • Harvest: Fall 2025
  • Importer: Osito
  • Cupping Score: 87
  • Recognition: Copa de Oro Finalist consideration (scored as high as some lots that made the final 15)

INTRO
Don Juan Jiménez Peña owns Finca El Porvenir in Palestina, Huila — at 16 hectares, substantially larger than the average Colombian coffee farm, yet completely focused on quality, and it shows in the cup. While this washed Pink Bourbon didn't make the final 15 at Copa de Oro, it scored as high or higher than some lots that did. Juicy and vibrant, bursting with tropical fruit and peach notes. In the cup: peach, lemonade, and tropical fruit.

THE PRODUCER
Huila, in southwestern Colombia, grows more coffee than any other department, with coffee cultivated in 35 of its 37 municipalities across a wide diversity of microclimates, temperatures, altitudes, and varieties. Pink Bourbon, famed for its pink ripened cherries and unique flavour characteristics, has become highly sought after — now genetically confirmed as an Ethiopian Landrace variety, proliferating particularly across Huila among specialty-focused producers like Juan Jiménez Peña.

THE PROCESS
This lot is Washed, a method that removes the fruit before fermentation and drying — allowing Pink Bourbon's naturally juicy, tropical character to come through with clarity, building the peach and lemonade brightness that define this cup.

THE CUP
Juicy and vibrant — a classic washed Pink Bourbon bursting with tropical fruit and peach notes, finishing on a bright lemonade acidity.

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
  • 1700 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.
