Colombia Arnulfo Osorio Espresso - Single Origin.

Arnulfo's 7.5 hectare farm in Planada, Tolima includes 1.5 hectares planted with around 4,500 pink bourbon trees alongside corn pastures and a trout farm. More recent genetic studies suggest that pink bourbon is not a bourbon mutation but instead has Ethiopian heirloom lineage. It is still relatively rare, demanding careful management and selective picking to realise its quality potential in Colombia’s highland conditions.

On Arnulfo’s farm, pink bourbon cherries are dry fermented for 60 hours, fully washed, and then dried for 25 days in parabolic dryers, giving him tight control over drying speed and uniformity. Planada and the broader southern Tolima area offer a mix of high elevation, volcanic soils, and strong diurnal temperature swings, and producers like Arnulfo are using careful variety selection, extended fermentations, and slow drying to push more distinctive, traceable microlots from this region.
