About This Coffee

This coffee is from Finca La Llama in Villa Rosario, Bolivia, at 1700 meters altitude. It is 100% Java variety, processed using the Pink Honey method—a distinctive anaerobic fermentation technique where anthocyanidins create a characteristic pinkish mucilage tint. The beans were hand-selected at peak ripeness, fermented for 96 hours, then dried using a combination of raised beds and box dryers. Flavor profile includes sweet orange, citrus peel, green tea, malt syrup, hazelnut, and berry accents with a clean finish.
