Published: 2024-11-15 Author: World Gafei
Last Updated: 2024/11/15, Venezuela introduced coffee trees from Martinique as early as 1730, but coffee production was almost abandoned at the height of the oil industry. Recently coffee plantations have begun to recover, with original Tipica and bourbon coffee trees and new plantations.

Coffee producing areas in Venezuela:

The best coffee producing area in Venezuela is the southwestern state of Tachira. But the name Tazira has been indiscriminately used for coffee beans across the country.

The best coffee names in Venezuela are: Montebello in San Cristobal (SanCristobaldeTachira) in Tazira, Miramar in Rubio (RubiodeTachira) in Tazira, Granija in Timothe (TimotedeMerida) in Merida, and AlaGranjia in SantaAnnadeTachira in Tazira. Other premium brands include Maracaibos (the name of the coffee export port), Merida, Trujillo (Trujillo), SantaFilomena and Cucuta.

One of the many plantations in Merida at the foot of the Andes belongs to the Pablo and Pulido families, an ancient farm that has been allowed to downsize. Since taking over the farm in the early 1980s, the Pulido family has grown new trees to expand the farm while harvesting coffee from existing bourbon trees.

The Caracas Zhouyuan area, once famous for its coffee, has resumed production. In addition, the Jean and Andries AndresBoulton plantations in the Turgua region also grow Tippica coffee trees.

Venezuelan coffee tastes different from other coffee in Latin America. It is delicious, light and less sour than traditional coffee, which makes it not only blended but also distinctive.

The market for Venezuelan coffee:

Currently, most Venezuelan coffee is exported to Russia and Colombia, where it is repackaged. Many small newly rebuilt plantations have also begun to export coffee on their own. The coffee industry is not very prominent among the many industries in the country.
