"ABOUT SILVIA ORDONEZ

Under the watchful eyes of her father, long time coffee producer Silvio Ordoñez, this is 19-year-old Silvia’s first micro lot and first international sale. About two years ago, the duo planted this plot of 1,500 Pink Bourbon trees together based on Silvio's desire to, "teach her that one has to achieve things by their own merit.” Since taking over this small garden of Pink Bourbon, Silvia has been studious and attentive to all elements of harvesting and processing. Silvia has also become a weekly fixture at Monkaaaba’s coffee tasting sessions, where she has learned to identify her own coffee while learning about physical analysis and defect identification.
 
ABOUT PINK BOURBON
Pink Bourbon is a variety known for the complexity of its acidity and fruit characteristics. The physical look of the seeds and plant, along with its rather distinct flavor profile, point towards it being some sort of Ethiopian Landrace variety. However, to our knowledge Pink Bourbon has not yet been genetically tested, so we cannot say with certainty what exactly it is. Working with our partners at World Coffee Research we hope to have this variety tested in the near future."
