Pink Bourbon continues to be an impressive variety and this cup offers the bright and fruit forward profile that we have come to expect from this farm. We find flavors of hibiscus, lime, melon and red tea. Pastor is a third-generation coffee producer, with a lineage that traces back to some of the first coffee growers in San Agustín. He began his farm at the age of 18 with 4,000 Caturra plants, and today cultivates a variety of cultivars, including Caturra, Pink Bourbon, SL-28, Papayo and Gesha. Pastor’s coffee was the first we purchased from Monkaaba, opening the door to one of our closest relationships. We've been sourcing coffee from Pastor for many years, and it’s always a pleasure to share his exceptional coffee. Cherries are picked at peak ripeness and left to ferment for 8 hours in sealed bags followed by 12 hours in the hopper. The cherries are then released through the depulper and left to dry ferment for 36 hours. The coffee is then washed 3-5 times and moved directly to raised drying beds. The coffee dries for between 18 days to one month, depending on the weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-source\"\u003eCoffee details reported by ilse coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Norma Supply Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46590876909612,"sku":"I-20261105-COLOMBIA-PASTOR-ORDONEZ-SL28-250G","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/0750\/6732\/files\/pastor_df65f85b-2b43-4f1a-bcfc-513e3b44aba2.webp?v=1793930152"},{"product_id":"ilse-colombia-pastor-ordonez-sl-28-sl-28-washed-with-8-hours-sealed-bag-fermentation-12-hours-in-hopper-36-hours-dry-fermentation-then-washed-3-5-times-and-dried-on-raised-beds-colombia-250g","title":"ILSE - Pastor Ordonez - SL-28 - Washed - Colombia 250g","description":"\u003cp\u003eBig and jammy with high flavor intensity and sweetness\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e SL-28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e Washed (with 8 hours sealed-bag fermentation, 12 hours in hopper, 36 hours dry fermentation, then washed 3-5 times and dried on raised beds)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Colombia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e San Agustín\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1800 MASL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pastor Ordoñez\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blackberry, tropical citrus, limeade, plum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Variety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a separation of SL-28 harvested in late 2025.
