Colombia is the third largest coffee producer in the world, and coffee is produced almost everywhere, but in recent years, the southern region outweighs the north, and the famous Nalinglong, Tolima and Huilan are all good producers. Small farmers have a land area of no more than 10-15 hectares, coffee will be on an elevated bamboo bed when dry, and there will be an UV-resistant awning above it, and a large circulating fan will keep the drying room ventilated for no more than 18 days. The humidity of coffee is measured every day. Small farmers believe that the climate, soil, temperature, picking maturity and proper care on this earth contribute to the taste of some coffee to a large extent. Comprehensive collection of farm data and cup testers constantly put forward suggestions, consumers put forward the taste they like, and finally improve the good farm, this is the way of fine coffee in front of Colombia.
