In 1721, French naval officer Gabriel Mathieu de Clieu went through difficulties and obstacles to bring the first coffee sapling from Africa to the Latin American island of Martinique, which was the origin of coffee cultivation in Latin America. Because France was under the Bourbon dynasty, Arabica coffee grown in Latin America had another name, bourbon, which is now famous in the coffee industry. Bourbon is now an important branch of coffee in Arabica. The overall flavor of Latin American coffee is famous for its balance, and all the flavors in Latin American coffee can be found in Latin American coffee. The widespread use of wet treatment of raw beans is also one of the characteristics of Latin American coffee, and the good processing process also makes the bean shape more uniform and the defect rate lower than that of African coffee.

In fact, most of the medium,

South American countries have switched to altitude classification, and only Colombia maintains this traditional classification system, which many Colombian coffee makers have recognized and have begun to demand a change in the classification system. Colombia's famous producing areas include Medellin, Armenia and Manisales, so the word MAM is sometimes seen on coffee bags, indicating that the coffee beans may come from any of these three producing areas. Almost all of Colombia's finest coffee beans come from traditional small farms, which grow old coffee trees from Typica, which are well planted and carefully harvested and treated, so they are of high quality but relatively low in yield.
