La Pradera - Colombia

La Pradera Taste Story This refreshing pink bourbon lot from Santa Maria, Colombia is the perfect coffee to welcome spring. Pink bourbon coffee cherries have a strikingly vibrant pink hue. A vibrancy that is abundant when savoring sips of pink bourbon coffee. While first discovered in Colombia, its lineage traces to Ethiopia. So it's a child of two coffee powerhouses. This lovely lot from the Cuellar family in Colombia is bursting with pleasant tartness, citrus sweetness and floral sensations.  Processing Journey Once at the wet-mill  the coffee cherries undergo 24 hours of fermentation. After this they are floated to remove defective cherries, depulped and then fermented for another 48-52 hours. After this the coffee dries in a greenhouse from 18-25 days depending on the weather.  Farmer Profile La Pradera is managed by brothers Luis & Robinson Cuellar. They grow coffee on 3.5 hectares of their 6 hectares of land, so they’re extremely dedicated to producing amazing coffee. Luis
