Product description
Producer and Region
This coffee comes from La Piragua farm in Acevedo, Huila, Colombia, managed by Alexander Vargas. With over 20 years of experience in specialty coffee, Alexander has built a reputation for precision and experimentation, working with varieties like Pink Bourbon and Geisha.
On the farm, he combines tradition with innovation, using controlled processing methods and an on-site lab to cup and refine his lots. His work has earned multiple Cup of Excellence nominations, reflecting his focus on quality and consistency.
Cultivation and Processing
This coffee undergoes a natural co-fermentation process designed to enhance complexity and deepen the sensory profile. Freshly harvested cherries are placed in an anaerobic environment for 96 hours, allowing controlled microbial activity to slowly break down sugars and compounds within the fruit.
During fermentation, layers of pineapple and panela are added to amplify the coffee’s natural character. The pineapple brings bright tropical acidity, while the panela contributes a soft sweetness and rounded structure without overpowering the cup.
After fermentation, the coffee is dried on parabolic beds for 15 days, ensuring a slow and even reduction of moisture. This careful drying stage preserves clarity, stability, and structure in the final cup.
Variety
This lot combines Pink Bourbon and Tabi, two Colombian varieties known for their complexity and expressive character. Pink Bourbon brings floral aromatics, bright citrus, and refined sweetness, while Tabi adds structure, sweetness, and a layered tropical fruit profile.
Together, they create a vibrant and balanced cup with clarity, depth, and elegant acidity.
Cup Profile
This is not your typical co-fermented coffee with overpowering or artificial flavours. Instead, the pineapple and panela are carefully integrated, supporting the cup without overshadowing the coffee itself. Expect a tropical and juicy profile with vibrant acidity, layered sweetness, and plenty of complexity.

Coffee the way it was meant to be
At Blommers we follow coffee from the source to the cup. We work directly with farmers who know what they are doing and roast in a way that keeps the original flavour intact.
Alles wat we verkopen, van malers tot brewers, hebben we zelf getest. In onze ontwikkelruimte werken we dagelijks met de apparatuur, zodat het advies dat we geven is gebaseerd op ervaring en niet op een specificatieblad.
