Origin: Colombia
Region: Huila
Varietal: Pink Bourbon
Processing: Washed
Tasting notes: Peach tea, dried strawberries, honey
The Process:
Washed processing involves de-pulping the coffee cherry. A bladed tool is used to cut open the cherries, extract the seeds and discard the empty fruit. The coffee is then soaked in water to soften the seed and typically is left to ferment for 12 to 72 hours. Afterwards the coffee is washed clean of any remaining fruit, mucilage and silverskin before it’s finally dried. Washed coffees are the most common processed coffees you’ll see!
