Jorge Mira's Yellow Bourbon has red berry sweetness, a slight apple tartness and a marshmallow sugar edge. Needless to say, it is very drinkable.

El Jaragual farm is in Amalfi, Antioquia, in the North of Colombia. Jorge Mira oversees the growing of many premium varietals of coffee at El Jaragual, which spans 150 hectares at an altitude of 1500 MASL. Large portions of the farm is dedicated forest, both conserved native and managed sustainable pine (Jorge was a forestry engineer). Refined processing techniques enhance and stabilise the aromatic qualities present in the coffee beans. Extended fermentation, yeast inoculation, warm rinses and cold quenches are all used to take the yellow bourbon coffee to the next level of flavour.

Yellow Bourbon is a well-balanced cup of red berry and apple flavours, with a lightly caramelised finish.

El Jaragual is a 150 hectare farm, 1500 MASL, in Amalfi, Antioquia, Colombia. Situated in the Northern Andes it is the perfect location to grow premium coffee varietals.

Sweet, Juicy and Intricate

We pick up on notes of strawberry, red apple and marshmallow. There is a lightly caramelised sweetness, and lingering red berry flavours with each sip.

Advanced Processing

Jorge's processing methods are meticulous and controlled. The beans are washed at 45°C to create a thermal shock. Then an extended fermentation with select yeasts for 62 hours at below 25°C. The fermentation is then sealed with a 5°C wash before drying occurs at 40°C.

Bright Intensity

This Yellow Bourbon varietal is complex, bold and sweet. These flavours are refined and enhanced by Jorge Mira's advanced processing techniques.
