Producer Profile
Didier Pajoy is back again this year, this time with his washed Pink Bourbon which landed him in the Top 15 at at the 2025 Copa de Oro Competition. Besides producing his own excellent coffee on his farm in La Plata, Huila, Didier is an integral part of the Osito Colombia team. He founded the Martir growers group, a collection of growers sharing knowledge of agriculture, processing, and export. The group has become known for quality output. He works closely with other producers in La Plata and San Agustin to assist them with processing and manages the Osito purchasing point in La Plata.
Of the many growing regions in Colombia, the mountainous department of Huila in the south west of the country grows the most coffee. Huila enjoys a wide diversity of micro-climates, temperatures, altitudes and coffee varieties. In fact, coffee is grown in 35 of Huila's 37 municipalities. All of this means that the coffee coming out of this region is as diverse as the variables that influence its production.
This variety, famed for its characteristically pink ripened cherries and equally unique flavour characteristics, has become highly sought after. It has now been genetically confirmed that Pink Bourbon is in fact an Ethiopian Landrace variety. On our trips to Colombia, we've seen the variety proliferate across Colombia, particularly in Huila, where it has become extremely popular amongst specialty focused coffee producers.
