Our connection with this coffee is rather special. During the summer of 2023, we had the privilege of being welcomed to Colombia, in the Nariño region, by none other than the remarkable Francy Castillo. Following her enthusiastic steps and listening to her vibrant laughter, we ascended to 2000 meters above sea level through a narrow and challenging trail, ultimately arriving at her coffee farm. The view through the mountains was incredible, and Francy's hospitality even more remarkable.
Therefore, with much affection, we present to you our favorite coffee from Francy—a pink bourbon that we had the opportunity to taste not only directly from the cherry but also later roasted by Francy herself during a cupping session. The complexity of the coffee and its aromatic profile are amazing. From guava to pineapple, rose to a small white flower, a lively yet juicy acidity, it's a coffee that provides an endless mouthfeel. It's vibrant, full of energy, an experience, much like our friend Francy.

Percy Pintado is a third-generation coffee producer, based in the charming municipality of Alto Ihuamaca, located in the San Ignacio district of Peru. Since 1996, he has been managing his own 5-hectare farm, where his three children now also work. Various coffee varieties, including Bourbon, Caturra, Catimor, and a small plot of Gesha are grown on his land. During the harvest season, five employees join the team to assist with the picking. The Geisha cultivated by Percy perfectly embodies the harmonious blend of the classic profile of this coffee variety and the unique terroir of northern Peru where it thrives.
For the past seven years, Percy has taken on the role of leader within the Alto Ihuamaca committee of Origin Coffee Lab's educational program. Origin Coffee Lab is a Peruvian coffee export company in partnership with our importer, Apex Coffee Imports. Producers participating in their program receive training in good agricultural practices, quality assessments of their coffee, and easier access to the market. Furthermore, Origin Coffee Lab actively invests in social and environmental initiatives and innovative sustainability practices, placing producers at the heart of their operations.
This lot is one of those complex coffees where it's challenging to confine oneself to just a few notes. Initially, floral hints reminiscent of jasmine and orange blossom are perceived, followed by a touch of bergamot and orange zest. The tasting experience concludes with a sweet note that fluctuates between the complexity of honey and that of a small, sweet biscuit. Drinking this delicate cup of Gesha is a true pleasure.
