Subtext - Alirio Ortega Pink Bourbon Espresso
COF-ST-0193This Pink Bourbon from Alirio’s early 2024 harvest showcases his dedication to adventurous coffee varieties and sustainable practices at his farm, El Placer, near Bruselas, Huila. Grown without synthetic inputs, this lot undergoes a meticulous washed process, including an initial fermentation in plastic bags followed by de-pulping and additional fermentation. The result is a vibrant cup with bright, prickly acidity, reflecting both the unique qualities of the Pink Bourbon variety and the care Alirio and his collective, Los Guacharos, invest in their craft.
