Around 10000 BC, hunter-gatherer societies existed near present-day Bogotá. Around the first millennium AD, the Indians of America created a political system. It is a pyramid structure, the top for the leader. In present-day Colombia, two civilizations adopted this complex system. One is Tayronas in the Caribbean region and the other is Muisca near Bogotá. Musika can also be translated as Chibcha.

The indigenous population of pre-independence Colombia Colombia was the Chibucha Indians. They use wooden and stone tools to grow crops such as corn and cassava and weave cotton cloth. The area is a famous gold mine in ancient South America, and the Chibcha people have a high level of gold decorative art.

Colombia coffee is one of the few plain coffees sold worldwide under its name. In terms of quality, it has won praise that no other coffee can match.

Colombia coffee is divided into more than 200 grades, which means that coffee is very regional. The coffee-producing region of the country is located in the Andes, where the climate is mild and the air is humid. Colombia has three Cordillera mountains running north-south, right into the Andes. Coffee is grown along the highlands of these mountains. The terraces provide a diverse climate, with harvest seasons throughout the year and different types of coffee maturing at different times. And fortunately, unlike Brazil, Colombia doesn't have to worry about frost damage. There are approximately 700 million recorded coffee trees in Colombia, 66 per cent of which are grown on modern plantations and the rest on small traditionally managed farms.

The National Coffee Management Association of Colombia, like Kenya's National Management Association, is a model for coffee organizations. Colombia is more concerned with product development and production promotion than other producing countries. It is this, coupled with its superior geographical and climatic conditions, that makes Colombia coffee delicious and famous all over the world. The status of coffee in Colombia is illustrated by the fact that all vehicles entering the country must be sprayed to avoid inadvertent disease and damage to coffee trees.

Colombia is blessed with Atlantic and Pacific ports, which help to reduce the cost of transporting coffee. It is the only country in South America that has this condition. The main productive areas of Colombia are located in the Central and Eastern Mountains. The most important plantations distributed along the Central Mountains are located in Medellin, Armenia and Manizales. Of the three regions mentioned above, Medellín produces the best quality coffee and the highest price, characterized by full grains, rich nutrition, rich aroma and moderate acidity. These three areas are collectively known as MAM.

Colombia coffee is often described as having a silky smooth taste, and of all coffees, it has the best balance, a soft, smooth taste, and ready to drink
