From the producer

Carolina Chalapud Daza and Guillermo Torres Daza produce this coffee at their farm in Buesaco, Nariño, utilizing careful washing and slow drying techniques.

From the roaster

Onyx Coffee Lab highlights this coffee as a clear expression of its high-altitude environment, emphasizing the complex flavor profile achieved through meticulous processing.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This high-elevation Pink Bourbon is grown in volcanic soils, which the roaster notes contributes to the coffee's distinct intensity and clarity.

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.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.

The internet pulse

What the internet is saying about this coffee

Research complete — no qualifying reviews yet

Our research pipeline scanned public reviews, videos, forums and discussions for this coffee (last pass 2026-11-07) and found no independent review of this exact release that meets our verification standards. When qualifying sources appear, they'll be published here.

What we found

Method: require an independently authored tasting or rating tied to Onyx’s archived bubblegum/tangerine Altos de Quitumpamba Pink Bourbon release. Spro lists the exact release but reports no reviews. Cherrybook, bag.coffee and The Press are catalog/profile sources. The current “-26” Onyx release and the separate Chiroso release were excluded.

Until then, meet the people behind it:

Same coffee, different roaster?

Other roasters, same producer.

These coffees come from the same producer or farm, offered by other roasters. We never automatically declare two offerings the exact same coffee — a match requires lot, harvest and traceability details. Even a true same-lot pair can taste different: roast approach, freshness, rest and brewing all reshape the cup.
