What Five Elephant says about this coffee
This lot comes from Selmira Ruiz’s one hectare farm La Palma in La Perdiz, San Agustín, at 1740 meters above sea level. The site sits on clay dominant soils with volcanic influence, where steady rainfall and elevation support gradual cherry maturation and increased seed density.
Pink Bourbon performs particularly well in southern Huila, producing elongated seeds and pronounced aromatic lift when harvested carefully. At La Palma, cherries are selectively picked at peak ripeness, fermented for approximately 48 hours in a controlled washed process, and dried slowly over 15 days to ensure stable moisture reduction.
The result is a structured, high clarity Pink Bourbon shaped by altitude, soil composition, and disciplined post harvest management rather than heavy fermentation.

What the roaster says about where it came from
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.

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.
