Product Information

A major concern in recent years for Colombian farmers is climate change and its impact on their crops and yields. It’s been devastating for many farmers, with the majority of them taking a very bleak outlook on the future of their livelihoods. Colombia is an incredible place to grow coffee, full stop. It comes down to things like the weather (both rain and the overall temperature), the elevation, and the differences in soil that are responsible for the unique flavor profiles in each of the main regions. The arabica beans play a big factor too, as does the careful harvesting of each bean.

While coffee beans made their way around the world in the late 1600’s, it’s believed they finally found their way to Colombia some time around 1723 thanks to the Jesuit priests who brought them along. 1835: Aromatic Exploration: Elevate your coffee experience with the captivating aroma of Colombian coffee beans.
