Passenger Coffee
Lancaster, PA, USA
This spectacular coffee from José Salazar, a producer from Pitalito, Huila, was awarded 6th place in the 2021 Colombia Cup of Excellence competition. The lot is composed of a mysterious variety that Señor Salazar named “Bourbon Ají” after noticing that the ripe coffee cherries gave off an aroma reminiscent of chili peppers. Subsequent testing indicates that this fascinating variety is not a Bourbon, but rather, a previously uncatalogued Ethiopian landrace.
