Anoxic Washed Pink Bourbon

This Pink Bourbon from Jorge Elías Rojas at Finca El Jardín in Tolima, Colombia, is a vibrant example of careful, innovative coffee production. Grown at high altitude and processed using the anoxic washed method — where cherries ferment without oxygen before being washed and dried — it delivers exceptional clarity and sweetness. The cup reveals floral aromas, red berry notes, and a bright, balanced acidity that captures the essence of Tolima’s highlands.

The coffee should rest for minimum 21 days after roasting and be used within 4 months at the latest. The coffee reaches its maximum complexity within a certain period of time. In our experience we found that between 4-8 weeks the coffees are reaching their peak.

About the varietal

Pink Bourbon

Pink Bourbon is a rare hybrid variety thought to originate from Ethiopia. It’s prized for its complex and vibrant cup profile — often showcasing floral aromas, bright acidity, and a refined sweetness reminiscent of tropical fruit or red berries. Grown mainly in Colombia, Pink Bourbon requires careful cultivation due to its sensitivity and lower yield, but its exceptional flavor makes it a favorite among specialty coffee producers and roasters.

About the process

Anoxic washed

The anoxic washed process starts by placing freshly harvested coffee cherries in sealed tanks where oxygen is completely removed. In this controlled environment, fermentation happens under pressure, allowing specific microorganisms to develop unique flavors without unwanted oxidation. After fermentation, the coffee is fully washed and then dried. This method combines the clean, bright profile of a washed coffee with the enhanced sweetness and complexity from the anoxic stage — resulting in a cup that’s both vibrant and layered.
