La Bonita
Finca La Bonita is located in Páez, Cauca, Colombia, and is managed by Juan Dabid Embus. Páez, Cauca is a region known for its volcanic soil and consistent climate. Juan focuses on growing several varieties, each selected for its quality potential. The farm covers 10 hectares at 1,900 m.a.s.l., where he grows Bourbon Aruzy (6,000 trees), Colombia (5,000 trees), and Pink Bourbon (3,000 trees). Juan Dabid starts his lots by careful selection of the cherries followed by immediate depulping. The parchment is then fermented for 48 hours, washed with abundant water and laid to dry in marquesina for 10 - 15 days, depending on the weather.
In this cup, we taste a medley of bright hibiscus and creamy, smooth persimmon and date-like sweetness.

Sorting Level
4-5%
All our roasted coffees are run through an AI-powered optical sorter. This extra step ensures that you receive only the most nutrient-dense, flavorful coffees from each lot. The machine is also capable of removing any foreign objects (corn, metals, rope, to name a few) from the rest of the coffees.
The higher the percentage, the more coffee is being removed in order to achieve a truly pristine product. We liken this to how sake-makers "polish" during production in order to reach a higher-quality product.
Nothing goes to waste: the rejected coffees are re-roasted and sold to local markets.
Variety / Cultivar
Pink Bourbon
Despite it's name, Pink Bourbon is closer to Ethiopian Landrace variety than it is to Red or Yellow Bourbon. A constant favorite on the cupping table at Regalia HQ: we get the greatest range of florality and sweetness in the best of Pink Bourbons.
