About This Coffee

This Pink Bourbon coffee is produced by the La Cumparsita project in the Chinchiná municipality of Colombia's Caldas department. Grown at an elevation of 2,000 meters, the coffee undergoes a semi-washed process involving a 38-hour fermentation with dehydrated watermelon. This controlled fruit-assisted fermentation enhances the coffee's natural aromatic profile while maintaining clarity and structure. The cup features notes of watermelon, melon, caramel, and subtle spice, offering a smooth, sweet, and lingering finish.
