The Pink Dolphin is one of the dolphin species that inhabits the Amazon River and is perhaps the most striking because of its unusual color. In some cultures it is considered a charmer, a magical animal that seduces men and women to lead them to their city underwater... And something like that has happened to us.

It's been a long time since we had a 100% Pink Bourbon washed coffee and when the opportunity presented itself, we let ourselves be driven to the bottom of the river. Grown at 2000m above volcanic soils, this extraordinary coffee offers us an exotic profile with notes of Strawberry Smoothie, Lemon Honey and Banana.

Diofanor Ruiz, a coffee farmer since 2003 and owner of La Divisa since 2005 (Quindío, Colombia), has worked tirelessly to improve the quality of his coffee, moving away from traditional methods. With a 14-hectare farm, he has planted fruit trees and various crops that help enrich the soil and give natural shade to the coffee trees.

A unique coffee that offers us a cup with honeyed and malic acidity along with a creamy body. The clear example of a producer's effort to offer the best of his land.

Dioafanor Ruiz began his adventure in coffee cultivation in 2003 and since 2005 he has been the owner of the La Divisa farm, which has 14ha and is located at 1950 meters above sea level, on volcanic soil. Since his beginnings, he has planted more trees on his farm in order to provide natural shade to the coffee trees and improve the composition of the soil. The space has a large collection of fruits such as bananas, tangerines, soursops and oranges. Diofanor has always moved away from traditional cultivation methods in favor of practices more focused on quality.

In the production process of Pink Dolphin, once harvested and selected, the coffee cherries are fermented in water for 30 hours before being pulped. The parchment coffee is then washed and dried under controlled conditions until the ideal humidity is reached.

This micro-lot is 100% Pink Bourbon.
