From the producer

Octavio Rueda produces Pink Bourbon at El Mirador in Palestina, Huila. SEY has purchased from him for several years and describes this fourth pass as the farm’s seasonal peak and a reference point in its study of Pink Bourbon diversity.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee has maintained a multi-year relationship with Octavio Rueda, focusing on exploring the genetic diversity and distinct profiles of his Pink Bourbon crops.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

The fourth El Mirador harvest pass documents the seasonal peak of Octavio Rueda’s 2025 Pink Bourbon series, with an exact 80-hour underwater fermentation and raised-bed drying endpoint.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

Fourth-harvest identity verified

Confirmed Octavio Rueda, El Mirador, Palestina/Huila, 1,830 m altitude, Pink Bourbon, and September 2025 fourth-harvest separation.

Washed protocol verified

Confirmed overnight whole-cherry hold, 80-hour underwater fermentation, washing, and raised-bed drying to 10.5% moisture.

Historical commerce structured

Added the exact $25.50 historical offer and retained the 250 g package evidence.

Sentiment policy corrected

Removed the retailer-hosted Shop aggregate from public-sentiment framing; no qualifying independent exact-release review remains.

Roast indicator normalized

Mapped Spro’s exact-release 3/5 indicator to the schema’s Medium label; this is catalog metadata, not an owner tasting observation.

What was added?

Historical $25.50 USD price, Medium roast-level normalization, refreshed availability, and a corrected independent-sentiment boundary.

What wasn't added?

No bag-specific roast date, formal grade, independent public sentiment score, exact brew recipe, or owner tasting score was inferred.

Why it matters

The record now preserves the exact fourth-harvest identity without borrowing evidence from earlier El Mirador passes or treating marketplace ratings as independent editorial sentiment.

What you might taste

SEY reports blueberry, rose hips, and pink lemonade.

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 2026-11-04) 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

Spro lists the exact release but reports zero reviews. Shop’s 4.0/5 aggregate is retailer-hosted and exposes insufficient independent review evidence, so it is excluded. Sigma is a seller. Earlier El Mirador harvest passes, roaster descriptions, directories, and catalog reproductions were also excluded.

Suggestions are selected from recently updated, published coffee profiles sharing documented origin, farm, producer, variety, process or tasting notes. This is a bounded discovery sample, not an exhaustive catalog ranking; availability is only a dated source observation.

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.
