La Piragua Striped Red Bourbon

Highlights

“This coffee comes from La Piragua Farm in Palestina, Huila, southern Colombia, surrounded by mountains at 1,600-1,800 meters. Producer Alexander Vargas began learning coffee farming alongside his parents at 15, focused on specialty production by 20, and has spent more than two decades experimenting with new varieties and processing methods. He grows varieties including Pink Bourbon and Geisha, and his coffees have earned multiple Cup of Excellence nominations. He even built his own cupping lab, where every lot is carefully evaluated to improve future harvests.”
