Front Street-introduction to Columbian Coffee

Colombian coffee (Cafe de Colombia), which originated in Colombia, is one of the few individual coffees sold in the world under the name of the country. In terms of quality, it has won praise unmatched by other coffee. Compared with other producing countries, Colombia is more concerned with developing products and promoting production. It is this, coupled with its superior geographical and climatic conditions, that makes Colombian coffee excellent in quality and delicious and famous all over the world.

Roasted coffee beans will release a sweet aroma, with sweet in the acid, bitter in the flat quality characteristics, because of the appropriate concentration, it is often used in high-grade mixed coffee. Colombian coffee exudes a light and elegant aroma, not as strong as Brazilian coffee, not as sour as African coffee, but a sweet fragrance, low-key and elegant.

Colombia is the world's largest producer of washed Arabica, the second largest producer of Arabica and the third largest producer of coffee, with an annual output equal to about 1/3 of that of Brazil.

However, this huge producing country is not what I thought there are too many commercial manors to form large-scale production. On the contrary, 95% of the estates in Colombia are small estates, with a large number, and most of them are planted with less than 5 hectares, almost entirely by artificial production, in the form of smallholder cultivation and family trade, which has both advantages and disadvantages. but there is no doubt that it allows us to drink more diverse traits or differences.

The overall terrain of Colombia is relatively flat, high in the west and low in the east, with an area of 2/3 in the east of the Amazon alluvial plain, and three Cordillera mountains parallel to the east. Colombia's boutique coffee is basically grown on these mountains.

The mountains rise and fall, running from north to south, with different soils, and a very rich microclimate, forming a number of producing areas, large and small, that can grow more than 80 different flavors of coffee, almost any time of the year in Colombia. there are places where ripe coffee fruits are being harvested.

Knowledge: the establishment of the Colombian National Cafe Federation (FNC, a large non-governmental organization) in 1927 greatly promoted the development of the national coffee industry, providing a variety of services and support to coffee producers in the country.
