Brewing

We suggest using this coffee for filter brew methods, such as a pourover, aeropress, chemex or batch brew (or similar). It's roasted a bit lighter to accentuate the delicious fruitiness and acidity that we love.

Growth Story

This 100% Pink Bourbon microlot was produced by Jhon Héctor Díaz and his family on their five hectare farm, La Armenia. The farm sits at 1,800m above sea level, and is located near the town of Pitalito, in the southwest of Colombia’s state of Huila.

Jhon Héctor got his start in coffee at a very young age, growing up at La Armenia when it was owned and managed by his father. Working with his father instilled in him a deep respect for traditional farming practices, from planting to harvesting, which informs his careful and considered approach to production. Once he inherited the farm, he continued to care for the soil, recognising this was key in keeping his yields high and the quality of his crop exceptional. Héctor has since implemented further sustainable practices, like the reduction of the use of agrochemicals and the planting of native shade trees and food crops to promote a healthy biodiversity.
