Coffee producing areas in the Americas refer to Central and South America, while areas north of Mexico basically do not produce coffee beans. Coffee producing areas in the Americas are mainly distributed from the Tropic of Cancer to the equator, and several countries in Central America are basically coffee producers. Brazil, located in South America, is the largest coffee producer in the world.

The climate of Colombia, which is located in the tropics, varies according to the topography. The southern part of the eastern plain and the Pacific coast have a tropical rain forest climate, the mountains with an elevation of 1000-2000 meters have a subtropical climate, and the northwest has a savanna climate.

Colombia is the world's largest producer of washed Arabica, the second largest producer of Arabica and the third largest producer of coffee in the world, with an annual output equal to about 1/3 of Brazil, accounting for 12 per cent of the world's total output, just behind Brazil and Vietnam. But compared with the two, Colombia grows almost only high-end Arabica coffee beans. Bourbon, Kaddura, Kaduai.
