Alirio Rodriguez
Alirio Rodriguez (third-generation coffee producer) has been producing coffee for more than 30 years. He purchased El Recreo when he was only 15. Alirio transitioned to specialty coffee in 2018 as he was not happy with the low prices he was getting for commercial coffee. On top of it he had the desire to improve and expand his coffee production and better the quality of his production.
Pink Bourbon
This Pink Bourbon lot was grown at 1550 masl at Finca El Recreo located in the Huila region. It was processed using a natural fermentation that is straightforward. Once ripe, the coffee cherries get harvested and are directly laid to dry on raised beds. Cherry is raked frequently to ensure even drying until it reaches the desired moisture level before being sent to the milling.
