100% Arabica. Bourbon Variety. Sun-Dried. Medium Roast. Fincas Luis Roig Inc., Duey, Yauco, Puerto Rico. 1,800 to 2,000 Feet.

Since 1992, Fincas Luis Roig has maintained a two-hectare plantation of the prized Bourbon variety in Duey, Yauco. Its strategic pruning in 2017 is credited as the reason this was among the few farms to survive Hurricane María, the Category 5 storm that struck Puerto Rico on September 20th of that year. Its isolated location has kept the plantation healthy and free of many plagues that commonly affect coffee trees.

This coffee is processed at an ecological farm the same day it is harvested. A three-step classification process by size, density, and color ensures a uniform product. Sun-dried and medium roasted to highlight its best aromatic and flavor attributes. As Luis Roig says, “Bourbon coffee is definitely a gem for those who cultivate and care for its production.” Its debut white package seeks to transmit peace, purity, and cleanliness.

Coffee was introduced to Puerto Rico in 1736 from Martinique, via the Dominican Republic. The Tipica and Bourbon varieties were among the first introduced and remain some of the most culturally and genetically significant Arabica varieties. Today, few farms cultivate this distinguished variety. High in the mountainous region of Yauco, Café Don Luis is proud to count hectares of Bourbon coffee among its crop.
