Icam E Colombia Coffee Bean Producers Association Brand Taste Characteristics Introduction

The pure taste of Colombia coffee comes from the natural environment of Colombia, which has the most favorable conditions for coffee growth. But beyond that, it is inseparable from the hard work of local growers. In Colombia, coffee is cultivated on 1.07 million hectares, there are about 302,000 coffee plantations in the country, and 30 to 40 per cent of the rural population depends directly on coffee production. Although Colombia has many farms, they are not large. Each farm has an area of only about 2 hectares, and more than 80% of coffee plantations have only about 5000 coffee trees, with an average of 3000. Thus, agriculture in Colombia is of the small farm type. Locals plant tall trees or banana trees around coffee trees. During the seedling stage, coffee trees are sheltered to ensure a cool and humid environment for coffee growth. Due to the humidity in the coffee forest, the temperature difference is small, and the coffee beans mature slowly, which is conducive to the accumulation of caffeine and aromatic substances, so the coffee quality is the best.

There are several varieties of small fruit coffee. Brazil coffee, which has the largest yield in the world, has large seeds, strong adaptability and high fruit yield. In contrast, mild coffee produced in Colombia is a better variety, which is related to its special geographical location and climate environment. [1]
