Raspberry Floral Black Tea Chamomile Vanilla

"A delicate, tea-like cup led by bright raspberry and floral top notes, settling into a soft chamomile and vanilla sweetness."

🔥 Roaster's Insight

Roast approach: Pink Bourbon's high glucose content makes it prone to scorching and tipping, keep charge temp moderate and avoid pushing the rate of rise too hard early on. A light to light-medium roast, pulled before development runs too long, keeps the floral and berry character intact.
Watch for: A fragile, delicate variety, over-roasting flattens the Tulameen character fast, so it's better to slightly underdevelop than over-push here.

About this Coffee

Tulameen comes from Martha Solarte's Finca La Dulzura in La Unión, Nariño, a single-farm washed Pink Bourbon lot grown at 1640 masl.

Cherries undergo a slow, 36-hour submerged fermentation that coaxes out the lot's brightest character: deep raspberry and delicate floral top notes over a soft, tea-like body.

The lot is named after the Tulameen, a prized raspberry cultivar bred in British Columbia and famous among growers for its large, glossy berries and intensely sweet-tart flavor. It's the closest fruit analog we could find to what's actually in the cup.
