The Story
Red Bourbon is a classic variety, sweet and round. The lactic fermentation Jhoan uses on his Chiroso turns it into something else: candy and banana, the kind of cup people taste twice to be sure. It works on filter and as a light, expressive espresso.
Edilberto Vergara and Nubia Ayure started Las Flores near Acevedo in 1990, and Nubia won a Cup of Excellence award in 2006. It is a family farm still, about 16 hectares, run by her sons. Jhoan leads the processing, building a method for each variety rather than one for all, and barista champions have competed with the farm’s coffees.
