Bourbon Honey: A Heritage of Sweetness from Hacienda La Pradera

Introduce your customers to the timeless elegance of our Bourbon Honey lot, a classic varietal masterfully processed by the Daza Bautista family at Hacienda La Pradera Cafetera in Santander, Colombia. Building on a legacy of excellence since 1971, this multi-generational operation is dedicated to sustainable land use, organic practices, and producing specialty coffee that truly reflects their deep connection to the land.

Why Hacienda La Pradera Bourbon Honey Will Shine on Your Menu:

• A Legacy of Flavor & Stewardship: Offer a coffee rich with the story of the Daza Bautista family's dedication. From Mr. Héctor Daza's vision of creating a biodiverse shade canopy to Oscar Daza's leadership in organic farming, this coffee embodies a commitment to quality and environmental harmony – a story your customers will love.

• Unique Microclimate Advantage: Cultivated near the majestic Chicamocha Canyon, this Bourbon lot thrives in a special microclimate. Warm daytime air currents paired with cool evening breezes and rainfall create ideal conditions, contributing to the coffee's rich complexity and vibrant profile.

• Artisanal Honey Processing: Managed by Hector Daza Jr., this Honey processed Bourbon lot exemplifies precision. The cherries are carefully de-pulped but allowed to dry with a controlled amount of their natural mucilage intact. This deliberate method maximizes the sugar content absorbed by the bean, leading to its characteristic sweetness and body. (Assumed process – confirm specific details if different)

These robust credentials provide powerful selling points for your brand, demonstrating a commitment to ethical sourcing and environmental responsibility.
