Colombian Coffee-produced in Colombia, roasted coffee beans emit sweet aromas, with sweet acidity and moderate bitterness, and are often used in high-grade blended coffee because of the right concentration.

Colombian coffee has a bitter experience, clear and astringent as life, while bitterness is necessary in life, and the last fragrance at the root of the tongue is a thorough recollection of the past. Suffering is pain, clear and quiet, the last fragrance has become a kind of spiritual victory.

Colombians' relentless pursuit of coffee quality can only be described in one word: seriousness. In addition to serious, but also serious. A well-known example of this is that Colombians can replace bourbon coffee trees with fast-growing and high-yielding Arabica coffee trees. But Colombians are not going to do anything until the quality of coffee beans grown from Arabica coffee trees is confirmed, even if they are willing to hand over their coffee production ranking from second in the world to Vietnam, which only grows robastian coffee.

Colombia is rich in products, especially coffee, flowers, gold and emeralds are known as the "four treasures", coffee is known as "green gold".

In 1808, a priest first introduced coffee to Colombia. Colombia is the world's third largest coffee producer (first Brazil, second Vietnam), the world's largest exporter of Arabica coffee beans and the world's largest exporter of washed coffee beans.

This Colombian coffee has been a core product of Starbucks since 1990 and has been very popular ever since.

Coffee variety

Before 1967, coffee trees in Colombia were basically Typica (native Arabica species, with a harvest every two years, low yield, susceptible to leaf rust and dense shade trees).

Now 8090% are Kaddura (native Arabica bourbon variety, high yield in one harvest every two years, resistant to direct sunlight) and Colombian variety (Colombia) (harvested throughout the year, 1/4 Robbins special pedigree, no shade tree)

FNC plays a great role in promoting the national coffee industry. Colombia quickly became the world's leading coffee grower, competing with Brazil and Vietnam for the title of top coffee grower in the world.

As a private non-profit organization, FNC is committed to protecting the interests of coffee producers, and most of the money comes from taxes on coffee exports. Its tentacles also go deeper into the community development level of the producing areas, contributing a lot to social and physical construction, including the construction of suburban roads, the establishment of schools and health centers, and so on.

Colombia has so far produced only large quantities of Arabica coffee, and although the country suffered a setback due to an outbreak of coffee leaf rust in early 2010, due to the development, spread and popularity of disease-resistant coffee species, producers already have good prevention techniques.
