2025 Octavio Rueda; El Mirador, New Season - Colombia

Octavio Rueda produces some of our favorite Pink Bourbon in all of Colombia. We have worked with this selection from El Mirador for several years now, and it remains a highlight each season. In the cup we find mango, strawberry, and hibiscus.

The 2025 Octavio Rueda release from Sey Coffee highlights the meticulous work of producer Octavio Rueda at the El Mirador farm in Colombia. This specific lot features the Pink Bourbon varietal, a plant known for its distinct appearance and complex cup profile. While Pink Bourbon is often celebrated for its vibrant acidity and nuanced sweetness, this particular harvest presents a bright, fruit-forward character defined by notes of mango, strawberry, and hibiscus.

When evaluating such expressive coffees, it is helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better identify the interplay between these tropical and floral characteristics. As a new season offering, this selection serves as a compelling example of the quality currently emerging from the region. By focusing on the specific contributions of the producer and the unique traits of the varietal, this coffee offers a clear window into the current landscape of Colombian specialty production.
