More Info
Pink Bourbon is one of the most coveted varieties in specialty coffee. A natural hybrid of Red and Yellow Bourbon, it is prized for the striking pink hue of its ripe cherries and a flavour profile that leans sweet, complex, and intensely aromatic. It is challenging to cultivate even in ideal conditions, making each well-executed lot a genuine rarity.
For this blend, we pair Jairo Arcila's Rose Tea Honey Pink Bourbon 50/50 with a naturally processed Brazilian from the Cerrado region of Minas Gerais. Grown at 900 m.a.s.l with distinct seasons and plentiful sunlight, the Brazilian component brings body, sweetness and chocolate depth to the cup. Together they pull beautifully as espresso and hold their own through milk.
