Tasting Notes: Lemonade, Raspberry, Cherry Origin: Colombia Process: Washed Varietel: Geisha, Caturra, Pink Bourbon Elevation: 1,600 - 2,000 MASL Imported by: The Coffee Quest In S panish, Las Perlitas means “Little Pearls” and throughout the harvest, it’s quite common that small-holders in Colombia produce lots that aren’t large enough to be exported on their own. However, the quality is often just as good (or better) than samples received from larger lots. As such, we buy all coffees, regardless of size and create a larger, export-size lot based on cup score and profile. The result is Las Perlitas Huila; a celebrated Washed coffee of various small lots from producers in Huila, whose farms range in elevation from 1,600 to 2,000 m.a.s.l. and grow Pink Bourbon. In most versions, there is usually a mix of varieties, which include Caturra, Pink Bourbon and even sometimes Geisha. However, with the amount of Pink Bourbon being planted in Huila these days, these lots are often very heavily weighted with that variety but this lot in particular, is nearly 50% geisha! Show more
