Colombia Alexander Vargas Pink Bourbon

About this coffee

Flavors of floral, grape, and sugar cane Alexander Vargas is a Cup of Excellence-winning producer for his Pink Bourbon varietal. He continues to innovate in processing and drying, making his coffees an absolute delight for us to roast. Once believed to be a natural mutation between Red and Yellow Bourbon, recent research has found Pink Bourbon to be its unique varietal, sharing more similarities to an Ethiopian landrace than a traditional Bourbon variety. The variety is native to Colombia, specifically Huila, with the name inspired by the cherry ripening with a pinkish hue. Colombia – kuh-LUM-bee-uh ah-lek-SAHN-der Vargas - VAHR-gahs
