HISTORY:

The history of this farm dates back to 1950 when Noe Burbano bought it. Eventually, the coffee plantation was passed on to his mother, Teresa Burbano de Torres, and it is now in the hands of the third generation of coffee growers with Carlos. Currently, his parents work together on the farm and, along with his sister Patricia, are responsible for administration. His wife, Angela Patiño, a prominent Q grader in the region, manages the farm's quality processes.

On the farm, they use renewable energy and oversee the entire process of cultivation, harvesting, processing, cupping, and quality evaluation in the laboratory, in addition to testing new varieties. Their goal is to have a laboratory accessible to producers and their families.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION:

The journey of Pink Volcano coffee begins with the careful selection of ripe Pink Borbon cherries, ensuring exceptional quality. Grown by Eduardo Ortíz and Segundo Alban and produced by Carlos Torres, this coffee undergoes aerobic fermentation without water, which enhances its distinctive flavor profile. Following fermentation, the beans are dried on raised beds for 20 days, allowing for optimal airflow and consistent drying. After drying, the beans are stabilized for 20 days in GrainPro bags to ensure consistency and preserve their quality. This meticulous process results in a rich flavor profile with notes of almond, black tea, floral, green apple, matcha, and peach.
