The variety.

01 / Pink Bourbon

Recent genetic analysis places Pink Bourbon with Ethiopian landrace groups rather than Bourbon, which explains its florality and lifted acidity. La Papaya’s dry tropical climate gives it cups that are precise rather than perfumed, structured rather than explosive, highly valued by competition roasters and filter programs.

The process.

The whole cherry is dried 20 to 30 days to 10 to 11% moisture, with manual turning 3 to 4 times a day. Fruit sugars and esters are slowly absorbed by the seed, giving a fruit-forward cup with complex sweetness and enhanced body.

The grower, on this coffee
Pink Bourbon sits with the Ethiopian landraces, which is where the florality and the lifted acidity come from. La Papaya’s dry climate makes it precise rather than perfumed, and the roasters who run competition and filter programs ask for it by name.
