IV · Manuscript I

A rare hybrid.

Bourbon Rosado is a natural cross of Red and Yellow Bourbon. The cherries ripen pink. The cup carries roses, honey, yellow fruits.

IV · Manuscript I · 02

Anaerobic honey, 1,900 m.

Hand-picked at the peak. Anaerobic extended fermentation. Honey-processed — depulped without washing. Sun-dried, hand-turned hourly.

IV · Manuscript I · 03

Regrowing on the farm.

Pink Bourbon is being re-established at Finca La Tesalia. Heritage farming is patient. We'll have our own harvest when the trees are ready.

IV · Manuscript I · 04

The patience.

Bourbon trees take four years from seedling to first harvest. Five before the cup is reliable. We will not rush the rows. The next manuscript opens when the cherries say so — not before.

Finca La Tesalia

Vereda Marmato

Above Armenia, in the Quindío highlands. Five generations have farmed this land. The same soil, the same family.

Trinitario cacao year-round. Pink Bourbon coffee regrowing. Honest work measured in seasons, not quarters.

Five Generations

Our father runs the farm today. The Flórez family helped open this region for coffee in the 1880s. We still farm it.

04

Nothing leaves the mountain without passing through our hands. Bean to bar, cherry to cup — on the same land.

VI · Manuscript II
