This Bourbon Sidra is a rare hybrid variety coffee grown at 1800 meters altitude on the Finca Buenos Aires in Pitalito, Huila, Colombia. Produced by Jhonatan Zúñiga, this coffee undergoes a natural process with anaerobic fermentation. The resulting cup is expressive and complex, featuring vibrant notes of raspberry, strawberry, and lychee, complemented by a creamy lactic quality. It offers a lively, citrusy acidity with a round, silky body and a persistent, sweet finish.
Piha runs a proper in house roastery tucked behind its main cafe and aims to roast daily so beans leave as fresh as possible. Founder and head roaster Pierre Guérin selects seasonal lots from Colombia, Brazil, Ethiopia, Kenya and Indonesia and focuses on letting each origin express itself in either espresso or filter. The roastery won recognition at the Global Coffee Awards and has worked closely with producers such as the Frinsa Estate in West Java on natural process lots. They ship retail bags, run educational workshops and treat coffee selection with the same curiosity you might give a good bottle of wine.
