colombian coffeehistory
When sorting out the historical information on coffee beans, Front Street looked up some information related to the history of Colombian coffee. At the beginning of the 18th century, with the arrival of Spanish colonists in Colombia, coffee entered the "New World" with the Spanish clergy. The first harvested coffee crops in Colombia appeared in the northeastern region of Colombia. Coffee quickly became a cash crop for small family farms and was promoted to all parts of the country.
However, Colombian farmers are reluctant to plant coffee because they are worried about economic difficulties in the first five years of growing coffee. Later, a priest named Francisco Romero firmly believed that coffee was the future of Colombia and promoted it vigorously. Coffee became one of Colombia's main export crops. Colombian coffee beans were not produced commercially for the first time until 1835, when exports totaled 25.6 million bags.
In 1927, the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia (FNC) was established, and the number of Colombian coffee growers increased. In 1938, the Colombian authorities established Cenicafé to help Colombian coffee growers improve coffee quality and yield through advanced agricultural techniques. Today, Colombian coffee production ranks third in the world.
Colombian coffee regions
Colombian coffee is one of the few coffees in the world that can be sold under the country's name. The taste characteristics of Colombian coffee beans are sour and sweet, moderately bitter, and have a suitable concentration. They are often used in high-end blended coffees. The three flavors of Colombian specialty coffee are sour, bitter and sweet. The unique fragrance fills the entire mouth and the smell is very substantial.
Colombia's mild climate, humid air, and diverse climate make it a harvest season all year round, and different types of coffee mature at different times. What they grow is Arabica coffee beans with unique quality. The coffee ground from this kind of coffee beans has a rich taste and endless aftertaste, which can be called a fine coffee. Nowadays, many people equate "Colombian coffee" with "high quality" and "good taste".
The reason why Colombian coffee has such outstanding flavor is inseparable from Colombia’s superior local growing environment. Front Street was reading Han Huaizong's "Specialty Coffee Science" and described Colombian coffee as follows: If Brazilian coffee relies on high technology to overcome the soil and water environment to grow coffee, then Colombia is the second generation of rich people sitting on good mountains, water and beautiful scenery. In Brazil, coffee is grown extensively on hilly red soil, while in Colombia, coffee is grown on mountainous black soil intensively.
Colombia's coffee-producing areas are mainly concentrated in the northwest region, the most famous of which are "MAM", namely Medellin, Armenia and Manizales. The specialty coffee bean producing areas in Colombia are mainly in the south, with planting altitudes above 1,500 meters, including Huila, Cauca, Santander, Antioquia, Tolima, and Narino.

The Huilan production area is world-renowned for the quality of its coffee and has become the largest and most representative coffee production area in Colombia. The topography of the Huilan production area is dominated by hills. Coffee plants are planted here at an altitude of more than 1,500 meters. The most important rivers in Colombia converge here, contributing abundant water vapor and water resources to the production area.
The coffee produced in the Huilan production area benefits from such superior conditions and the quality is also quite superior. FrontStreet Coffee includes Whelan as a representative of the Front Street ration bean series, and uses washed beans to represent the basic flavor of Colombia. At that time, because the washed beans tasted the most original, clean and bright, they could best reflect the characteristics of Colombian Whelan coffee.
