The team at Seven Seeds is absolutely thrilled to welcome back Willyan Zambrano, aka the Pink Bourbon Don, to the menu once again. For three years running, this coffee has been an absolute dream to roast and drink, cementing its place as one of our favourite releases.
This lot comes straight from Pitalito, Huila, where Willyan and his wife, Maria Esther Lopez, produce exceptional coffees on their farm, La Montañita. Their focus is primarily on Pink Bourbon, a variety native to Colombia, specifically Huila. It was originally named for the cherry’s distinctive pink hue and its resemblance to Bourbon trees. As its popularity grew, so did the name, however, recent scientific research reveals that Pink Bourbon shares more genetic traits with Ethiopian landrace, making it a unique variety all its own.
A mesmerizing mix of texture and fruit, this latest harvest from Willyan Zambrano proves once again why it remains one of our most sought-after releases. Super delicious, bursting with larger-than-life fruits and a long-lasting, sultry finish, this coffee is guaranteed to bring a touch of tropical bliss to the winter days ahead.
