Background:  

Miller Bustos has been producing coffee for over 20 years. He hopes that people who drink his coffee understand the love and hard work that he and his family put into producing it. The finished product, his Pink Bourbon Natural, is to-die-for with aromatic florals, sweet berries and delicate dried fruit.

Miller inherited his farm from his mother and is the third generation of his family to produce coffee on their land.

He started cultivating specialty coffee in the early-2010s, when he saw that specialty coffee was garnering higher prices. He hopes that specialty production will help his business remain sustainable overtime. He has focused on improving processing infrastructure and changing his fertilization methods to increase coffee quality.

Miller Bustos has 2 daughters who both want to be a part of the coffee business. They plan to attend college and receive technical training in agronomy and other related fields to prepare themselves for careers in coffee.

After selective handpicking, ripe cherry is laid on patios to sundry. Cherry is raked frequently to ensure even drying. It takes approximately 25 days for cherry to dry.

Pink Bourbon was previously thought to be a hybrid of Yellow and Red Bourbon varieties. The variety was first identified growing in and around Huila, Colombia. Recent research has found that Pink Bourbon is in fact not Bourbon at all. Pink Bourbon mostly likely comes from an Ethiopian landrace variety.

Pink Bourbon has a stunningly high cup potential that wows coffee professionals and consumers alike. Its impressively high cup quality makes even more sense now that we understand Pink Bourbon is not simply a hybrid of two Bourbon varieties but traces to Ethiopian landraces. Its siblings include the highly-prized Geisha, which has consistently produced incredibly high cup scores. Pink Bourbon will continue to be a highly distinguished and valued variety.

Some farmers also report that Pink Bourbon has more disease resistance than the Bourbons it grows alongside. Based on these new discoveries, this may be due to the genetic variety it has coming from Ethiopian landraces.
