Description:
Yulieth Mora carries forward a legacy her grandmother Pastora Anacona began in the 1980s, when she planted Villa Pastora's first coffee trees in Palestina, Huila. Now in its third generation, the farm reflects their shared commitment to quality. Ripe Pink Bourbon cherries are handpicked, floated, fermented 30 hours, and dried 15 days. In the cup, bright lychee opens into warm brown sugar sweetness, with a soft floral lift of orange blossom and a velvety smooth mouthfeel.

Product Info:
Variety: Pink Bourbon
Pink Bourbon is a rare and highly sought-after coffee variety known for its unique flavor profile and striking pinkish-red cherries. Originating from Colombia, Pink Bourbon is a hybrid between a red and yellow Bourbon.Process: Washed
The washed process, also known as the wet process, is a method used to remove the outer pulp and mucilage from coffee cherries before drying the beans. In this process, ripe cherries are first pulped to remove the outer skin, leaving behind the beans covered in mucilage. The beans are then fermented in water for a period of time, usually between 12 to 72 hours, depending on factors like altitude and temperature. During fermentation, enzymes break down the mucilage layer surrounding the beans. After fermentation, the beans are thoroughly washed to remove any remaining mucilage, leaving clean coffee beans ready for drying.Elevation: 1680M
Elevation plays a crucial role in determining the quality and flavor profile of coffee beans. Generally, higher elevations are associated with better quality coffee. As coffee plants grow at higher altitudes, they face cooler temperatures, reduced oxygen levels, and increased exposure to sunlight. These conditions cause the coffee cherries to mature more slowly, allowing them to develop more complex flavors and a higher concentration of sugars.Roast: Light

Villa Pastora farm, located in the municipality of Palestina, Huila, was acquired in the 1980s
by Mrs. Pastora Anacona, Yulieth and Gerson’s paternal grandmother. She initiated the
coffee tradition on the farm by plantingthe first coffee trees. Since then, this passion for
coffee has been passed down through the Mora Ortega family, now in its third generation
of coffee growers.
The farm, named after its founder, represents the hard work and dedication of the family,
who have focused on producing differentiated, high-quality coffees. Álvaro Mora, Yulieth’s
father, has been a central figure in maintaining and expanding this legacy. The farm serves
as a tribute to Álvaro’s mother, who first planted the seeds that would grow into a thriving
coffee business. Run as a family effort, Villa Pastora employs sustainable methods and
prioritizes product quality. Álvaro seeks recognition from consumers for the care and
passion invested in each cup of coffee. He believes in the importance of quality.

formed partnerships, such as his participation in the Delagua project, to expand the farm’s
reach and impact. These collaborations help in sharing -
