Processing and fermentation is one of the things which has given the Vargas’ their edge and this natural Colombia is a great example of one, with notes of dried plum, cacao nibs, and cherry. Grown at 1850masl in Palestina’s Los Olivos area, this particular coffee is a Red Bourbon variety - but the farm also cultivates Gesha, Java, Pink Bourbon, and Caturra. Alexander started out as a coffee picker, and for several years toiled on others’ farms before La Piragua, and this close contact knowledge has helped produce some interesting results. - Origin: Palestina, Colombia -
