This is a Pink Bourbon selection from a region we worked in more extensively in the past. Rica Brisa in Tarqui has always been a bit mysterious, and it is exciting to bring a lot from this special place back to the menu. In the cup we find raspberry jam, Key lime, and caramel apple.

ABOUT ALBERTO TRUJILLO
Alberto Trujillo works alongside his extended family in Tarqui, in central Huila. We purchased several lots from this region in the past, but over the years it has become increasingly difficult to source coffee there. The area is challenging to access and offers less varietal diversity than other parts of Huila. We are excited to bring a coffee from Tarqui back to the menu and hope this marks the beginning of renewed work in this unique place.
ABOUT PINK BOURBON
Pink Bourbon is a relatively new variety being grown primarily in and around Huila, Colombia. The variety has been identified genetically as an Ethiopian Landrace, but unfortunately, we cannot be any more specific as to its origins until there is a larger genetic database.

The cost of getting a coffee from cherry to beverage varies enormously depending on its place of origin and the location of its consumption. The inclusion of price transparency is a starting point to inform broader conversation around the true costs of production and the sustainability of specialty coffee as a whole.
