This is the second harvest pass that we have purchased from Guiliar Cuéllar this season. He is an inspiring new producer who has now produced two exceptional lots. In the cup we find lemonade, hibiscus, and mulberry.

ABOUT GUILIAR PÉREZ CUÉLLAR
Guiliar has spent most of his life working on coffee farms, and a few years ago was able to save enough to purchase his own. He began by buying a small plot from his father-in-law and an adjacent parcel, immediately planting 1,000 Pink Bourbon trees. It is a story we find deeply motivating, and we are excited to see how his coffee continues to develop.
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.
