2026 William Ortiz; La Cabaña, Pink Bourbon - Colombia

William Ortiz is one of the more exciting producers we have met recently, and this Pink Bourbon separation marks our first season including his coffee in our Huila project. In the cup we find pink lemonade, strawberry preserve, and soft florals.

The 2026 William Ortiz release from Sey Coffee highlights the meticulous work of producer William Ortiz at La Cabaña in the Huila region of Colombia. This specific lot features the Pink Bourbon varietal, a hybrid increasingly recognized for its unique cup profile. While Pink Bourbon is often celebrated for its distinct sweetness and complex acidity, this particular offering presents a vibrant sensory experience characterized by notes of pink lemonade, strawberry preserve, and soft florals.

When evaluating coffees with such nuanced profiles, referencing the flavor wheel can be a helpful tool for identifying the subtle interplay between fruit-forward acidity and delicate floral aromatics. As with many high-quality selections from Huila, the focus remains on the clarity of the cup and the specific expression of the terroir managed by Ortiz. This release serves as a compelling example of the potential found within contemporary Colombian coffee production.
