  • About El Silencio Panela - Final roast | Colombia

    This is a stunning high-cup score micro-lot produced from Pink Bourbon varietal trees grown by small-hold farmers at high altitudes in Colombia. Pink Bourbon is a rare varietal that has become well-known for producing incredible flavours.

    The washed process relies on a combination of multiple fermentation steps and pulping processes using water:
    The freshly picked cherries are dry fermented for 12hrs
    and the coffee is pulped to remove the outer skin and some of the mucilage. The coffee is then fermented for a second time for 24 hours in tanks soaked in water. Finally, the coffee is washed and dried on raised beds.

Favourite beans I've tired!

Really tasty beans - sort of fruity without being too overwhelming and very worth the price. Best home brewed coffee I've had. Sad to see these are now out of stock. Hopefully they come back soon!

Great beans

Really nice beans, the hints of black tea and lychee are spot on.

Simply Stunning Colombian Pink Bourbon

Bought this because Colombian Pink Bourbon is one of my favourite varietals. Stunning, very smooth with low acidity. Initial flavours are Lychee and Redcurrant with Black Tea on the aftertaste (if you drink your coffee black like me), exactly as described by HCR. One to note and buy again.

it's a lovely coffee

I know you recommend 15gr per 250 ml of water for all coffees. However, with speciality coffees a tip on the brewing ratio and method, or perhaps even a video with Horsham roasters, would be appreciated. It would help me to make sure I am making the best of a premium coffee, and I am getting the expected notes rather than treating it like an ephemeral coffee.

El Silencio Panela is suave

Bought it to try, and it is as it's name - quiet and gentle and tasting of brown sugar. I like that there is not much acidity too. Lovely, light and delicious coffee beans.

Beautifully juicy and fruity

Worth the extra spend for an exceptionally juicy coffee. Was tricky to dial in but now I’ve gotten there I’m getting a really pleasant raisin flavour with a nice amount of acidity. Even on opening the bag you can smell that this is going to be something a bit special!

Love At The First Sip !

This coffee is truly stunning. Upon opening the bag the bursting smell of flavours was overwhelmingly delicious and pleasant sweet ,creamy , floral and very refreshing.

Brewed on one of many brewers I have but the best one works with my fave OREA V3 on fine / mid-fine .

Hit with bursting fruity flavours ripe lychee ,melon then floral ,pomegranate with a mixed end of creaminess and raisin that fades quickly , the raisin part.

Definitely has a wonderful and unique taste and texture as it is my first double washes coffee beans that I can say I am truly impressed.

I have bought 2 bags just in case runs out quickly and is out of stock 😂

HCR again , you guys are an awesome team . Big love from Newcastle ❤️

Incredible character full coffee

I want more, really pleasantly surprised how tasty and unique this coffee is. It's been a little while since I have had a washed processed coffee but this was really really lovely!
