Venezuelan coffee features San Cristobal producing area

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.

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 country's many industries. For nearly a century, Venezuelan coffee has been completely overshadowed by oil. At the beginning of the last century, Venezuela's main export is coffee, coffee exports have long occupied the top three in the world. Since the commercial exploitation of oil, black gold has completely covered up the limelight of coffee. Local old people like to say nostalgic that before Colombia starts to grow coffee, we export coffee here. The reality is so cruel that today's Venezuela needs to import coffee from other Latin American countries in order to meet its own consumer needs. Nowadays, coffee lovers around the world talk about Colombian or Brazilian coffee and completely forget the existence of Venezuela.

The practice of coffee changes all over the world, simply saying: it is nothing more than adding milk, how much milk is added, whether the added milk is foamed, and so on.
