About This Coffee

We finally managed to buy a small lot of Pink Bourbon from Diego, as he has slightly increased the production of this cultivar. I have been waiting impatiently to get some, having tasted this cultivar from his farm several times over the past few years and really liking its cup profile. Pink Bourbon is genetically not a true Bourbon cultivar but rather an Ethiopian heirloom, though its exact origin is still unclear. Most farmers call it Pink Bourbon, but since we have not tested this cultivar genetically, I can only assume that it is the Ethiopian variety that Diego has planted on his farm. I find it to have slightly higher acidity and a more fruity, elegant, tea-like cup profile compared to the traditional Bourbon Elite.
