Clean, vibrant, and intentionally crafted.
A clean expression of Pink Bourbon.
This washed Pink Bourbon from Finca Satus reflects the meticulous, variety-focused approach of producer Bryan Smith in Pitalito, Huila. Grown between 1,500–1,850 masl, where warm days and cool nights slow cherry maturation, the altitude supports the development of sweetness, aromatic lift, and refined acidity before processing begins.
Cherries are selectively harvested at peak ripeness and undergo a clean, carefully controlled washed process. Fermentation is managed to preserve structure and brightness without sharpness, followed by thorough washing to maintain clarity. Drying is closely monitored to protect delicate aromatics and stabilize moisture, allowing the varietal’s natural sweetness and floral character to remain fully transparent.
The result is a cup that feels vibrant yet composed, expressive without excess.
In the cup, expect clementine and lemongrass brightness balanced by fresh sugarcane and caramel sweetness. Jasmine aromatics lift the profile, while notes of ripe peach and gentle stone fruit emerge as the coffee cools. The texture is silky and juicy, finishing remarkably clean with lingering sweetness.
A refined and articulate expression of Pink Bourbon, bright, floral, and elegantly sweet, shaped by careful cultivation and deliberate processing at every stage.
Why We Chose This Coffee
We chose this lot because it shows how much can be expressed through simplicity when it’s done well. Bryan Smith doesn’t rely on heavy processing or intervention; instead, he focuses on preserving what the coffee already holds.
What stood out to us is the clarity. Every element feels intentional, from the way the cherries are selected to how the washing process is managed to maintain brightness without sharpness. Nothing is added, nothing exaggerated just careful handling from start to finish.
There’s a quiet confidence in coffees like this. They don’t need to be pushed to stand out; they reveal themselves through balance and precision.
It’s a coffee that reminds us how refined and expressive a clean, well-executed washed profile can be.
