The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Linked the verified origin

Connected the existing Cauca region record after the exact Intelligentsia page identified El Cabuyal near Sotará in Cauca.

02
Reconciled retail facts

Recorded the current $26 USD price and refreshed sold-out status from the exact official page; two exact catalogs independently preserve the 12 oz / 340 g format and $26 listing.

03
Protected the lot boundary

Kept Jaime Sánchez Ledezma, El Cabuyal, and Pink Bourbon attached to this exact release while excluding process and elevation claims from different Juan Martín coffees.

04
Kept scoring transparent

Did not convert Cherrybook’s evidence-coverage index, roaster-level Reddit discussion, or unrated catalog entries into a public cup score.

What was added?

Existing Cauca relationship, structured $26 USD price, refreshed availability, an additional exact catalog source, and current evidence notes.

What wasn't added?

No lot-specific process, elevation, harvest, fermentation, drying method, formal grade, conventional roast level, roast date, house score, or public sentiment score was inferred.

Why it matters

The page now resolves structured origin and price gaps while keeping the El Cabuyal release distinct from similarly named Sotará coffees.

What you might taste

Intelligentsia names caramel and stone fruit; these are the roaster’s notes, not an owner tasting.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

What we found

Beans with Beanie has no ratings or written reviews for this exact listing. Cherrybook’s CBI is not a cup score and its Reddit signal applies to the roaster generally. Seller pages, catalogs, different farms, different releases, and roaster-level discussion were excluded from numerical sentiment.
