The Sebastian Ramirez Session IPA is a creative reinterpretation of Colombian coffee. Grown at 1700 meters above sea level within the El Placer Farms project, this Pink Bourbon combines technical innovation with a collaborative vision among small producers in the Coffee Region.

Sebastián Ramírez, a fourth-generation producer, leads this project, which integrates five farms and a technologically advanced processing center in Quimbaya. His focus is not only on exceptional quality, but also on sustainability and generational renewal.

The Honey Session IPA process is as unique as its name:
-100 hours of carbonic maceration with CO₂ injection
-Removed from pulp leaving the mucilage intact
-100 additional hours of carbonic maceration with wort, lemongrass and hops
-Initial drying in Eldas
-Finishing in African beds inside polytunnels for maximum uniformity

This method enhances an intense and complex aromatic expression, reminiscent of IPA beer profiles, but maintaining clarity and definition in the cup.

The result is an expressive, exotic, and perfectly structured coffee.
