Rob says: PINK BOURBON, a captivating coffee variety, adds a touch of mystery with its limited documentation on lineage. Though it hints at a connection with Yellow and Red Bourbon, its hybrid nature and unique characteristics make it stand out.
The tree’s appearance, resembling a mix of Colombia and Typica, adds to the intrigue. In the cup, Pink Bourbon surprises with an exotic profile reminiscent of Geishas, Ethiopian, and Kenyan coffees—a delightful departure from traditional Colombian varieties. Embracing its uniqueness, the coffee aligns perfectly with the adventurous palate favored by Caffenation.
