El Progreso, Huila, Colombia

Nestled in the lush mountains of Colombia’s Huila region, Rodrigo Sanchez’s El Progreso farm represents the pinnacle of four generations of coffee expertise. The discoverer of Pink Bourbon and a two-time winner of Colombia’s Best Coffee award, Rodrigo brings his innovative approach to this extraordinary carbonic macerated coffee.

Inspired by winemaking tradition, the carbonic maceration process produces a coffee with remarkably complex and vibrant character. Coffee cherries are carefully placed in oxygen-free tanks to undergo internal fermentation—enhancing the distinctive effervescence and fruity profile that make this coffee truly exceptional.
