This is the second harvest pass from Diego Parra. Brother to Yessica Parra, this sibling project has produced some of the best lots of the season. In the cup we find candied lemon, red currant, and hibiscus.

ABOUT DIEGO PARRA
Diego Parra has a beautiful 14-hectare (~35-acre) farm nestled in the mountains of southern Huila. This is our first year purchasing his coffee, and we have been deeply impressed by the care and attention to detail he brings to his work. This lot is sparkling clean and processed in a way that highlights the beauty of both variety and terroir.
ABOUT PINK BOURBON
Pink Bourbon is a relatively new variety being grown primarily in and around Huila, Colombia. The variety has been identified genetically as an Ethiopian Landrace, but unfortunately, we cannot be any more specific as to its origins until there is a larger genetic database.

The cost of getting a coffee from cherry to beverage varies enormously depending on its place of origin and the location of its consumption. The inclusion of price transparency is a starting point to inform broader conversation around the true costs of production and the sustainability of specialty coffee as a whole.
