Coffee came to Colombia in the late 18th century through Christian priests among the Spanish colonists. The first coffee was grown in the northern provinces of Santander and Boyaca, and gradually spread to various parts of the country to become a cash crop. But it didn't really play an important role until the end of the 19th century.

The commercial cultivation and export trade of Colombian coffee began in the first decade of the 19th century, but the export situation was not optimistic until the beginning of the 20th century.

In 1927, the Colombian Coffee producers Association (Federacion Nacional de Cafeteros, referred to as FNC) was founded, which was well aware of the value of marketing to Colombian coffee and began to establish its brand image very early. The fictional character Juan Valdez, the Colombian coffee spokesman, was created in 1958, which was arguably their greatest success.

Juan Valdez and his mules have become representatives of Colombian coffee, and their avatars can be seen everywhere on coffee packages and in different advertising campaigns, which undoubtedly adds value to Colombian coffee. Due to the early promotion of "Alpine Coffee" and "100% Colombian Coffee", Colombian coffee has an extraordinary status in the eyes of global consumers.

Oscar Aparicio owns a small farm called Santa Lorena. His lover Nancy Marka is a hard-working local woman. They have a young son. They live in the city of popayan and work on the farm every day. The farm is located in the mountains, 1900 meters above sea level, with temperatures as high as 28 degrees during the day and 12 degrees at night.

This huge temperature difference makes the apricot rose summer has a rich sense of hierarchy and unique cup taste. This rose summer is very similar to Panama rose summer in taste, but the taste of apricot is unique, which makes Colombian rose summer deeply attracted to us. Its bright and soft acidity, as well as the hardness of the coffee bean itself, make it a very special bean. In fact, the rose summer mixed beans won the boutique coffee competition in Cauca, Colombia, with a high score of 89.7 in 2014.
