Description of Coffee |
MEET THE PRODUCERS | For brothers Jhonatan and Johan Gasca, coffee is a family business. Both men have made quite a name for themselves in their respective home bases, Bruselas (for Jhonatan) and Pitalito (for Johan). You saw quite a lot of Jhonatan's coffees come through our menu last year, and we are delighted to kick off 2025 by showcasing a new variety which both brothers had a hand in producing!
Bourbon Aji is a fairly new "designer" coffee variety which is thought to be a mutation of Bourbon, and is almost exclusively grown in Colombia. The Gasca brothers have a small amount of this variety on Jhonatan's farm, Zarza, and they grew this lot especially for us.
TRUST THE PROCESS | This lot underwent similar processing to Jhonatan's Washed Thermal Shock coffees we've previously offered, but with a much lighter hand. Low-impact processing was the goal here, in order to showcase the flavor profile of this up-and-coming coffee variety.
TAKE A SIP | Lightly floral and pleasantly sweet, this coffee also features vibrant acidity (like lemon zest) and stone fruit flavors (like peach)... which makes it sound almost like a Gesha, right? But, there's also a slightly herbal character about it that reminds us of sipping a Sidra. In any case, it's delicious - and it definitely convinced us that Bourbon Aji deserves a place at the cupping table.
