Front Street Colombian Isabella Coffee

As one of several coffee-growing areas in Colombia, Huila is probably the most famous in the country. Like many other parts of Colombia, the development of Huila has been severely affected by riots that plagued Colombia from the 1990s to the early 2000s.

In 2010, the Government of Colombia launched a support programme for farmers displaced after the riots. Its central objective is to ensure the return of land to its legitimate owners and to provide them with resources to restart agricultural production.

In some cases, this also means that coffee growers have been given the resources to shift from commercial-grade coffee production to boutique coffee production, thus obtaining fairly high market prices.

In 2016, Vera produced 2.6 million bags of 60-kilogram raw coffee beans, accounting for 18 percent of the country's coffee production, according to the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation (FNC).

Pink bourbon is a coffee variety endemic to Colombia. It is a hybrid of red bourbon and yellow bourbon.

Compared with those two kinds of powdery bourbon, powdery bourbon has stronger resistance to leaf rust. However, from a genetic point of view, pink is an invisible gene relative to red and yellow, which is why pink bourbon is not common.

Therefore, in the process of cultivating pink bourbon, coffee growers need very careful care to avoid the appearance of pink during cross-pollination, and so on.

During harvest, because pink is more difficult to judge than red and yellow, it becomes more difficult to control the maturity of coffee berries.

Flavor: there are citrus, berries and virgin fruits in the mouth. Under the change of temperature, there are sweet caramel, light fermented aromas, floral and nutty aromas in the finish, smooth and clean on the palate.
