About The Producer
Edimar Ortega has been growing coffee for 28 years. Working alongside his wife Luz Amparo and their adult children Yonatan and Daryani Edimar is currently cultivating Pink Bourbon and Bourbon Ají ir Tagua on five of the family’s total 32 hectares. Finca La Solita, where this specific lot was grown, and Finca Buenavista sit at 1,700 and 1,800 m.a.s.l respectively, in the vereda or rural township of La Palma, in the municipality of Suaza, located in central Huila. During the height of the harvest the Ortega family hires 10 to 15 local pickers and they employ three permanent workers.
Variety
Pink Bourbon is a variety primarily grown in Huila, Colombia, and while newer, it has quickly grown in popularity for its bright, sweet, and aromatic profiles. It is now known to be an Ethiopian Landrace variety.
