Colombian coffee is regarded by many as among the best, if not the best, in the world. Since 2011 the coffee growing area has been a World Heritage Site.The coffee is apparently comparable to Costa Rican or higher grade Brazilian..
"The highland Arabicas thrive under ideal climate conditions: clouds, guamo and banana trees protect the coffee plants from scorching heat and severe winds. The Colombian coffees are a generally soft but very aromatic. Their body is somewhat richer than Brazilian coffees, but equally soft and rounded in taste. The Supremo coffee with its big beans can be described as velvety and well balanced."
"Colombia is second only to Brazil in overall coffee production and first in quantity of Arabicas grown. The Juan Valdez ad campaign helped make Colombia the best known origin. “Supremo” is the highest grade, based on bean size. Colombian coffee has long been considered generally good, but unspectacular. Some really fine coffees, however, are produced in Colombia, mostly in the southwest part of the country."
