How does it taste
We buy coffees from the Imbachi family through our partner in Colombia, Caravela company , several times a year, as the harvest in the Huila region is practically continuous. We currently try to buy the entire harvest, which always includes nanolots of the Geisha and Pink Bourbon varieties. We blend them once a year and offer them as the "Reserve" edition from the Imbachi family.
The coffee has a distinct floral aroma. The taste is dominated by citrus and sweet notes of dark fruit.

Why blending pink bourbon and geisha?
These two are possibly the most trendy varities in the current world of specialty coffee. Pink bourbon has been around since 1980's but its exact origin is unknown. Some say it is a spontaneous hybrid of red and yellow bourbon first found in the southern part of Huila, which is the same region as where Imbachi farms are situated. However, Cafe Imports, a famous US based coffee importer, recently conducted genetic tests of pink bourbon which proved the variety is much closer to Ethiopian heirloom varities than to bourbon. Much has been said about geisha already. Nowadays, it can be found at almost every single specialty coffee farm in the world, however, the highest priced geishas still come from Panama.
Since both varities are genetically very close, we though why not to try blending them. The result is a cup with amazing complexity. You will find thick and sweet notes of ripe plums together with floral aromatics and tropical fruits aftertaste.
The best way to nejoy this coffee is with V60.
