this coffee comes from colombia, grown by fredi and jamie ortega, and is roasted by ilse coffee. it's made up of pink bourbon and bourbon varietals, both known for producing clean, fruit-forward cups. expect bright citrus character throughout, lemon and grapefruit up front, with citrus zest and tropical fruit rounding things out. because the acidity is likely the main event here, a pour-over or filter method will let those flavours express themselves clearly. grind medium-fine, use water around 92-94°c, and avoid over-extraction, which can push the citrus toward bitterness.
