A rare variety of pink bourbon from a small farmer in St. Alf, Colombia.

Three Codiera mountains run north and south in Colombia, extending to the Andes

Local coffee farmers grow coffee along the highlands of these mountains

Production conditions with diverse climates; also because of changes in topography and altitude

A large part of Colombia's coffee industry is produced by small farmers.

But unlike coffee-producing countries in Central America, coffee-producing countries are often graded according to the altitude of their growth.

Colombian coffee is distinguished by the size of the bean mesh.

Among them, the Supremo grade above 17 mesh is the largest.

The next grade is the 16-order EXCELSO EXTRA.

Pink bourbon has a multi-layered and rich flavor, and beans have a higher density than other varieties. Although the resistance to leaf rust is only about 45%, with proper care, you can even get higher productivity feedback than other varieties.

Pink bourbon does not require special planting conditions. It can be planted at an altitude of 1500-2000 meters, which is not much different from that of ordinary coffee trees.

The difficulty of planting pink bourbon lies in the harvest time, because the pink bourbon variety factor, in the best mature harvest state, it is difficult to see his maturity with the naked eye. In order to ensure the perfect state of harvest, the sweetness of coffee beans needs to be measured by Brix machine, and the range of allowable harvest is between 23 and 27. Post-harvest processing, such as fermentation and drying processes, has no special treatment requirements for coffee from other tree species.

Due to production constraints, the selected pink bourbon batch selected by Alpha Coffee & Tea comes from a number of small farmers in the Vera area. In addition to the pleasant tone of grapefruit and the flavor of green tea, it is embellished with fresh mint, and the aroma and brightness of golden sugar bring you a fresh, comfortable and burden-free multi-level feeling.
