# Buraca Roasters — Colombia - Chiroso Imperial [Coffee List](https://www.coffeelist.co/b/buraca-roasters/colombia-chiroso-imperial) Last updated: 2026-11-05T08:22:45.258Z [Buraca Roasters](https://www.coffeelist.co/b/buraca-roasters) Available María Rodríguez is a third-generation coffee producer who inherited Finca Betania from her parents. She has carried the responsibility of managing the farm while also raising her son, who now works alongside her in the daily tasks. Their shared dedication has helped maintain a productive farm with a strong family identity. Betania sits within a rich and diverse environment where guamo, cachimbo, orange trees, and avocados provide natural shade and create a healthy ecosystem that supports the coffee plants. The farm also includes a one-hectare forest reserve that protects local biodiversity and maintains soil and water conditions. While the region has long cultivated traditional varieties such as Colombia, Caturra, and Castillo, it now grows several exotic varieties including Tabi, Pink Bourbon, Bourbon Chiroso, SL-28, and Gesha. The name “Chiroso” comes from a rural Colombian term used to describe something slightly elongated, which matches the distinctive long shape of this coffee cherry. Some studies suggest a possible genetic link to Ethiopian landrace varieties, although this is still being researched. María and the community behind Asociación Café Origen Palestina represent dedication, tradition, and a deep connection to the land. Their work reflects resilience and an eagerness to continue improving both quality and diversity. Each harvest expresses the history and effort of a family and a community that continue to grow through coffee. - Origin: Huila, Colombia - Processing: Washed - Varieties: Chiroso - Roast: Light-medium roast -
