From the producer

Elmer Sarmiento is one of roughly 200 Santa María producers selling through Cuatro Vientos. He named Nuevo Horizonte for the opportunities he hopes it will create for his family.

From the roaster

Partners Coffee selected Elmer's lot as a standout on its Huila visit and roasted it lightly for filter brewing.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

A steep, road-inaccessible, single-farm Pink Bourbon selected for high clarity and sweetness; the coffee must leave the farm by cable cart.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
On-farm processing

Elmer carries out a traditional washed process on the farm through the parchment stage.

02
Solar drying

Washed parchment dries in a covered solar dryer.

03
Move from the farm

Because the farm has no road access, dried coffee crosses the valley by garrucha cable cart.

What was added?

No fruit, culture or flavoring is disclosed.

What wasn't added?

No co-ferment or post-roast flavoring is reported.

Why it matters

Washed processing and solar drying preserve the high-elevation Pink Bourbon lot's brightness and clarity.

What you might taste

Raspberry, cherry, Pink Lady apple, lemonade, brown sugar and caramel.
