Many mysteries exist in the world of coffee. One of the mysteries that seems to unravel a little bit every year is the number and types of varietals. It seems that variations of traditional varietals are discovered every year, adding to the great diversity of coffee experiences in the world of specialty coffee. You can now be a part of this discovery process with our Orange Bourbon from Finca El Molino in El Salvador.
Several years ago, famed coffee producer Aida Batlle was working with Jose Antonio Salaverria, owner of Finca El Molino, when they discovered this new, mysterious natural mutation on the Red Bourbon trees. At the time, it seemed like a lot of work for very little, if anything in return. Fortunately for us, she convinced Jose to separate out this unique phenomenon and cup them for quality. The separation had begun and they have been forming the Orange Bourbon lot for PT's Coffee and a few of our friends ever since.
