What to Expect
Néstor Lasso's Pink Bourbon from Colombia delivers floral elegance with a juicy, tropical edge. Grown at 1750–1850 metres and washed to preserve clarity, this medium-light roast showcases the variety's signature sweetness and complexity without the funk of experimental processing.
The Cup
The body is silky and medium-weight, with a juicy mouthfeel that carries the fruit notes without overwhelming them. Acidity is bright and citric, leaning toward passionfruit tartness with a floral lift from elderflower and hibiscus. This is a clean cup with no fermented character, so the fruit reads fresh rather than boozy. The washed process keeps everything transparent and origin-forward.
Who This Is For
This suits drinkers who enjoy bright, fruit-forward coffees with floral complexity but prefer clarity over funk. If you like Ethiopian naturals for the fruit but wish they were cleaner, this is your bridge.
If you prefer chocolatey, low-acid coffees or find floral notes too delicate, this will feel too bright and light-bodied.
Best for: Filter enthusiasts who want juicy sweetness and floral complexity without experimental processing.
How to Brew This Coffee
A V60 will give you the cleanest expression of the passionfruit and elderflower notes, with excellent clarity across the floral spectrum. An Aeropress offers a slightly rounder body while preserving the brightness, ideal if you want the fruit without the sharpness. Filter methods like Kalita Wave or Chemex will emphasise the tea-like delicacy and let the hibiscus character shine through.

Moon Roast Coffee
Moon Roast was founded in 2012 by Fran Bradshaw in Hampshire, building on a rich family heritage in the coffee trade that spans generations. What began as small-scale roasting in a garden shed quickly evolved into a respected speciality coffee roastery, driven by a passion for quality and craftsmanship. Set on a repurposed farm in the Hampshire countryside, Moon Roast reflects both its rural surroundings and its deep-rooted connection to coffee history, from Fran’s great-grandfather, a London coffee broker in the early 1900s, to his father, who developed iconic coffee blends. Through daily cupping and a relentless focus on quality, Fran continues this legacy, ensuring every roast embodies precision, care, and a commitment to exceptional coffee.
