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.

The pure taste of Colombian coffee comes from Colombia's natural environment with the most favorable conditions for coffee growth. But beyond that, it is inseparable from the hard work of local growers. In Colombia, coffee cultivation has reached 1.07 million hectares, there are about 302000 coffee plantations in the country, and 30 to 40 per cent of the rural population depends directly on coffee production. Although there are many farms in Colombia, they are not large in area. The area of each farm is only about 2 hectares, and more than 80% of the coffee plantations have only about 5000 coffee trees, an average of 3000. Thus it can be seen that agriculture in Colombia belongs to the small-scale farm type. The locals plant tall trees or banana trees around the coffee trees. Build an Arbor for coffee trees at the seedling stage to ensure the cool and humid environment needed for coffee growth. Due to the high humidity, small temperature difference and slow ripening of coffee beans in the coffee forest, it is conducive to the accumulation of caffeine and aromatic substances, so the quality of coffee is the best.

The main varieties of Colombian coffee are Arabica coffee (coffea arabica), that is, small fruit coffee (small grain coffee). Relatively speaking, large fruit coffee (coffea robusta) is mostly grown in Africa of origin, such as the famous Madagascar coffee. There are several varieties of small fruit coffee. Brazilian coffee, which has the largest yield in the world, has larger seeds, stronger adaptability and high fruit yield; by contrast, the mild coffee produced in Colombia is a more high-quality variety, which is related to its special geographical location and climatic environment.
