Colombia San Adolfo Guacanas

This year we chose to offer two coffees for our December special. Two very distinctive and different lots, yet both from the same rare variety: Pink Bourbon. This relatively new variety was rediscovered a couple years ago and brings very fruit forward and floral flavors to the table. One was processed as a super clean washed, the other is anaerobically fermented as a funky natural.

It might seem like excessive, to take such a special variety as a Pink Bourbon and give it an involved processing like an anaerobic natural. But this is one of those instances where one and one make three. The expert processing of Andrés pushes the potential of an already great coffee to new levels. The strong harmony of both fruit and processing push forward boozy and strong flavors of strawberries dipped in rich white chocolate, but with an elegant layer of warm yet bright eucalyptus and citrus on top. There’s a lot to unpack so take your time and indulge.
