This coffee is from El Placer farm in Quindio, Colombia, produced by farmer Sebastián Ramírez. It is a Pink Bourbon variety grown at approximately 2000 meters altitude. The coffee is honey processed and light roasted. Tasting notes include melon and pineapple with a fruity cotton candy character, bursting with sweetness and a juicy mouthfeel. The coffee comes from the El Placer project, which operates farms at altitudes between 1500-1744 meters and higher, using experimental processing techniques including co-fermentations, controlled drying, and mosto activators.
