Pink Bourbon is cultivated from the hybridization of red and yellow bourbon, it is extremely rare and is showing signs of being quite resistant to leaf rust.  The problem with the variety is, it is difficult to produce with consistency as often the recessive genes which give the pink colour are over powered and yellow and red. 

Juan’s farm El Encanto is very experimental and he has a huge section dedicated to growing rare varieties.  The photo on the front of this card shows the nursery at El Encanto,  Juan and his team are currently planting thousands of new trees constantly improving techniques and their farming methods with cup quality and sustainability being the end goal.   

This coffee really jumped out on the cupping table, as it’s quite a journey!  Starting with floral notes and tropical fruits all wrapped in delicious milk chocolate.  The cup leaves you with a tea like freshness with stone fruit sweetness.  We are delighted with this coffee, we may release it as an espresso but we feel as filter coffee it shines!

At Round Hill we respect our coffee’s journey from farm to cup. Our coffee arrives as green beans – the farmer’s finished product – and we are careful to preserve and compliment the hard work already put in to each bean. We test-roast each coffee and allow it to rest. It is then brewed in a variety of ways to ensure maximum flavour and quality. Origin, variety and process are all key factors in determining each coffee’s individual roast profile – with taste the central focus of everything we do. We focus on each coffee’s unique character and roast to highlight its dynamic flavours and sweetness.
