Tasting Notes: Strawberry leaf, Cantaloupe, Rosehip, White tea

Bourbon aji, a new coffee variety popular in Huila, is being cultivated by Ildefonso, who manages a seed nursery with seeds from La Esperanza. This variety, native to Bruselas, is resistant to fungal issues like coffee leaf rust and has cherries that ripen to a chili color with a slight spiciness, which has intrigued local farmers. Despite its name, genetic tests revealed that bourbon aji is actually derived from a rare Ethiopian landrace, a recurring theme with coffee varieties in southern Huila.

Fantastic

Luna is becoming my favourite Canadian roaster. They’re really putting out some great releases lately. Really loved this one. My second Cordoba coffee this year. Both bright, lively, slight spice quality to the finish, sweet, complex, defined. Even though this Aji isn’t technically a bourbon, it really seems to act like a pink bourbon! Very similar profiles, in my opinion. Great stuff!

Been looking forward to this

I've had my eye on this roaster for a long time, and after finally getting my hands on their coffee, it didn't disappoint.

It's delicious! Light and complex, and grows more fruity as it cools down. Definitely recommend.
