How it sits among coffee from Ethiopia

Pink Lane Coffee describe this coffee as fruity, citrus, floral. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Ethiopia; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.

Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Ethiopia, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

Not stated

farm or estate, producer, harvest, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Where each fact came from

Altitude, highest

“Elevation: 1700-1800 MASL Varietal: Pink Bourbon Process: Washed Taste: Pink Grapefruit, Berry, Floral This is our sixth consecutive year buying coffee from Wilson Alba, and we think this harvest is the best yet: bright and juicy, with a pink-grapefruit acidity.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Altitude, lowest

Variety

“Initially thought to be a natural hybrid of the Red and Yellow Bourbon varieties, recent genetic testing has discovered that it may in fact be an Ethiopian Landrace.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Country of origin

“It is not clear how this variety reached Colombia from Ethiopia, though theories suggest, that it may have been brought as a parent for a hybrid, or that someone attempting to bring the Gesha variety was in fact carrying Pink Bourbon.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

A further 2 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
