Frank comes from a coffee producing family with more than 80 years of history in the region, and today he manages the family farm with a strong focus on processing precision, environmental sustainability, soil health, and responsible water use. Located at 1,750 masl, Finca La Indonesia benefits from Nariño’s volcanic soils, high elevation, and diverse microclimates. These conditions help create coffees with vibrant acidity, clarity, and elegant structure. For this lot, Frank uses a carefully controlled washed process with CO₂ fermentation. The Pink Bourbon cherries are harvested at full maturity, when they reach their deep pink colour, then sorted by flotation to remove underripe fruit. After pulping, the coffee is placed in a bioreactor with filtered, ozonated water and a small amount of must from a previous batch. The tank is then saturated with CO₂ and held at controlled pressure for 48 hours. Throughout fermentation, Frank monitors key variables such as temperature, pH, Brix, conductivity, alcohol level, and microbiological activity. After fermentation, the coffee is washed with filtered water, drained on raised beds, and finished with gradual mechanical drying at low temperatures to preserve the volatile aromatics developed during fermentation. The result is a clean and expressive Pink Bourbon with notes of pear, pomelo and persimmon, supported by cane sugar sweetness.
