Embrujo is run by Ignacio Rodriguez, but if you asked him, Embrjo is more than just him. They are ‘past, present, and future’, in order to be ‘creators of unique coffees’. Today, Embrujo produces specialty coffee under the highest quality standards. They are passionate about traditional processing while perfecting it by integrating technology, science and eco-conscious practices. Embrujo was founded in 1969 by Dr. Octavio Rodriguez who had an ambitious vision to produce and create regional progress. Looking forward to the future, Embrujo truly believe they have the ability to preserve the landscape and nature, while elevating their harvests to new heights.

This coffee is the first of three coffees we have secured from Embrujio and comes from their Second Generation Series! Their Second Generation Series is a cumulation of their knowledge from their first experiments (First Generation Series) with fermentation. In the Second Generation Series, Embrujo continued their experiments with the Pink Bourbon variety and the Buffoon profile was born. This coffee went through an anaerobic natural process which, according to Embrujo, is the only process that could reveal the full potential of Pink Bourbon.

The fresh cherries were picked before being sorted for ripeness. The cherries were then placed in permeable bags, each weighing 25kg. The bags were then immersed in tanks of cold water for 96 hours. From there, the full cherries underwent a mechanical drying process for aprox 140 hours were the temperature was maintained below 40° C.
