Grown by Luis Édgar Camacho in Palestina, Santa Bárbara in Colombia's Southern Huila region at 1720 masl, this Pink Bourbon varietal is fully washed with careful fermentation protocol: ripe picking, 48-hour in-husk resting, and 48-hour closed dry mass fermentation before 15 days of greenhouse drying.

It performs excellently as both filter and espresso (Turbo shots recommended), making it a versatile, fruit-forward coffee worth seeking out.

From LaREB's partnership in Colombia's Southern Huila region, this Bourbon Rosado varietal grows at 1,720 meters in Palestina, Santa Bárbara. Luis Édgar Camacho employs a meticulous washed process: ripe cherry selection, 48-hour in-husk rest, 48-hour closed dry fermentation, then 15 days greenhouse drying—all designed to preserve delicate complexity.

Edwin Noreña's Sudan Rume from Finca Campo Hermoso in Quindío, Colombia (1650m) undergoes an audacious multi-stage fermentation: selective harvest, 24-hour primary fermentation in whole cherry, pulping to black honey level, then 72-hour secondary fermentation in sealed tanks infused with enigma hops and backslopped mossto (coffee juice with selected microbes). The result is a wildly aromatic, flavor-packed brew with peach, grapefruit, passion fruit, hibiscus, hops, and rose notes that shift to pink guava and coconut as it cools. This is experimental coffee from a biotechnology-trained producer pushing fermentation technique to express the Sudan Rume's most surprising and memorable expressions. Roaster explicitly recommends whole bean, 2-week minimum rest, and filter brewing only.

Grown at 1650 masl in Circasia, Quindío by agroindustrial engineer Edwin Noreña, this Pink Bourbon undergoes a precise two-stage fermentation: 24 hours whole-cherry primary fermentation, then 72-hour secondary Black Honey maceration backslopped with Galaxy Hops–infused mossto (coffee juice) recirculated daily. The result is a playful, extraction-dependent profile: lower brews offer guava and papaya with hop finish; medium pulls deliver grapefruit sweetness; deep extractions bring forward peach and mellowed fruit with persistent hop notes.

The cup delivers intense mango upfront followed by pronounced coconut character; the roaster notes coconut dominates and suggests the profile will temper nicely in milk-based espresso drinks. This is experimental fermentation from a producer known for traditional central Colombian coffees, making it a genuine departure worth exploring for those seeking audacious, fruit-forward fermented expression.
