We wouldn’t have guessed when cupping this Pink Bourbon that it is Neyid Ysano’s first specialty coffee production. He planted these exotic Pink Bourbon trees only a few years ago. He is a young 29 year old farmer cultivating this small 1.5 Ha farm with his wife. They have been at it since 2018 when she inherited the land. The farm has around 1,400 coffee trees in production with 2,000 Pink Bourbon trees added this year! They also grow plenty of fruits, vegetables and legumes.

The Story Behind the Coffee

Neyid Ysano starts his lot by carefully handpicking the ripest of cherries, and removing all floaters, before bagging and fermenting them for an initial 20 hours. After this, the cherries are de-pulped and placed in tiled tanks filled with water for up to 36 hours for a final fermentation. Upon washing, the coffee is left to dry in parabolic dryers for 15-20 days, depending on the weather.

When Neyid first started farming coffee he grew the F6 variety and sold it to the local cooperative Occicafé. Soon he learned of the exotic Pink Bourbon variety that is endemic to Huila and which would yield higher prices, and that is how he started his specialty journey in 2021.
