Colombia coffee is the first coffee produced in Medellin, both in terms of yield and texture. It is characterized by full coffee beans, rich nutrition, moderate acidity, good balance, rich aroma and soft and smooth taste. In addition to Medellin, Armenia and Manizales, the capitals of two neighboring provinces in the south, are also famous coffee-producing areas.
