El Mirador — Octavio Rueda
This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.
The story
SEY has purchased Pink Bourbon from Octavio Rueda for several years and separates his harvest passes to study seasonal change. The September 2025 fourth pass was described as the peak of the season for this farm.
Challenges
No farm-specific challenge is documented in the cited exact-release sources.
Innovations
Across the documented releases, ripe cherry was hand-picked and floated, held in cherry overnight, depulped, fermented underwater for 80 hours, washed, and dried on raised beds to 10.5% moisture.
Published coffees linked to this farm
For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.
