Colombia Penas Blancas Pink Bourbon Anaerobic SWP DECAF ESPRESSO

About this coffee

This exceptional microlot from Peas Blancas, Colombia, offers a rare combination of innovation, precision, and heartdelivered in decaffeinatedform without compromise. Grown at an altitude of 1,750 metres above sea level, this Pink Bourbon lot is a product of precise experimentation anddeep respect for process. The cherries undergo a carefully calibrated journey: 36 hours of oxidation in tulles, water flotation with alcohol disinfection, followed by room-temperature oxidation, depulping, and a 36-hour anaerobic fermentation with mucilage. The fermentation is then arrested with hotwater at 50Ca technique that halts microbial activity while locking in flavour. Drying is conducted in a hermetically sealed stainless-steeldehumidifier over 3630 hours, finishing with a one-week stabilisation period. Once processed, the coffee travels to British Columbia, Canada, whereit's decaffeinated using the Swiss WaterProcess (SWP)a 100% chemical-free method that gently removes 99.9% of caffeine using water, whilepreserving the beans inherent flavour profile. The result is a clean, complex, and full-bodied decaf that stays true to its Colombian roots. Behind thiscoffee is a producer story grounded in resilience and innovation. Brothers Diego and Jhoan began their journey in Acevedo, Huila, on a 3- hectarefarm their parents purchased in 1990. Over the decades, they grew from a single-varietal farm to a 16-hectare operation that embraces varietaldiversity and sustainability. Beyond the cup, the brothers are equally invested in the land. They've planted over 2,000 shade trees to restore organicmatter, regenerate soil health, and promote a cooler microclimateensuring that every step of their coffee journey is rooted in environmental stewardship.
