Frequently Asked Questions

What does Huila coffee taste like?

Huila coffees are typically sweet and balanced, with caramel, red fruit, citrus and floral notes. Lighter roasts and rarer varieties like Pink Bourbon lean toward tropical fruit and jasmine.

Where is Huila, and why is it famous for coffee?

Huila is a department in southern Colombia, high in the Andes. It is one of the country's largest coffee-growing regions, and the high altitude and volcanic soils suit slow-ripening, complex cups.

What is Pink Bourbon coffee?

Pink Bourbon is a rare variety whose cherries ripen to a pink-salmon color, grown mostly around Huila. It is prized for floral, tropical-fruit cups and sells at a premium.

Is Huila coffee good for espresso or pour over?

Both. Medium roasts give chocolate-caramel espresso, while light roasts shine in a pour over where citrus and floral notes stay clear.
