Colombia coffee beans

In 1824, Colombia and Peru allied forces defeated the Spanish colonial army and Peru gained independence. During Bolivar's war in Peru, Santander acted as president and presided over Colombia's government affairs. Santander advocated the establishment of a federal regime and united local forces to oppose Bolivarian unity. Factional struggles within Colombia's Congress and government have become increasingly acute.

In April 1826, the Venezuelan local rulers headed by Pais and those opposed to the new Granada rulers headed by Santander demanded the establishment of a separate state. After Bolivarian mediation, separatist activities were temporarily stopped, but internal contradictions and factional struggles persisted.

May 8, 1828 Colombia's National Assembly convenes in Ocaña. Bolívar led by the centralized faction with Santander as the representative of the Federation faction in the meeting sharp conflict occurred. After that, the tendency to split in various places became more and more obvious.

In November 1829, Venezuela issued a statement withdrawing from the Great Republic of Colombia.

In January 1830 Bolívar resigned as president in Congress in an attempt to resolve differences and preserve national unity, but to no avail. On May 31, Quito announced its withdrawal from Colombia and established the Republic of Ecuador. Bolívar died on December 17, and Colombia disintegrated. 1831 Colombia and Panama renamed Republic of New Granada

Costa Rica's coffee region is located between 3 and 8 degrees north latitude, belonging to the low latitude coffee belt, which can be harvested twice a year, and ripe coffee can be harvested almost every month from south to north.

Large commercial coffee farms are distributed in the central and northern regions, which are the main commercial bean producing areas, including the three major producing areas of Medulin, Armenia,Manizales, commonly known as [MAM], which have a long history in the central region.

But Bukaramanka in the northeastern province of Santander is known for its low acidity and bitter aroma, similar to Indonesian mantenin flavor, probably related to the altitude of only 960 meters (low altitude, low acidity, tried and true). Bucaramanca beans are interesting, unlike the familiar Colombia flavor, although soft beans but good body, drink not like [MAM] beans only dead acid without depth.

Costa Rica's fine bean producing areas are mainly in the south, with an altitude of more than 1500 meters, including San Augustin,Huila, Popayan,Cauca, Narano, and Tolima, all of which have delicate sour and berry aromas and caramel aromas.

Don't think that the highest grade [Supermo] of 17-18 items will taste good, be sure to check which region the beans come from. If no production area is indicated, most of them are commercial beans of [MAM], because the southern fine production areas will indicate the province and origin name to distinguish them.
