Located in the very northwestern part of Colombia, the department of Antioquia is one of the largest coffee production areas in Colombia. Due to its mountainous nature with a mellow and humid climate this area has a rich heritage of coffee cultivation. Some of the finest Colombian coffees originate in this green and prosperous land.

Embedded between the Cordillera Occidental and Cordillera Central these Andean mountain ranges create unique microclimates nourished by several small rivers that curl through the valleys along the mountains. The average temperature remains steady between 17 and 23°C with balanced rainfalls providing excellent conditions for coffee production. On top of that, Antioquia’s soil has a reputation of superb quality with the capacity of preserving water and allowing for additional water supply during dry periods.

Los Abedules stands for an exquisite selection of washed Arabica coffees from the mountain ranges of Antioquia. The lot was produced by several smallholder farmers in the region and is classified as Supremo EP. Supremo refers to the largest size of beans in Colombia, of screen size 17/18 and EP stands for “European Preparation”. Its cup showcases the signature high-quality profile of Huila, with a round character along with vibrant and sweet flavors.

Historically, Colombia has been shattered by various periods of violence and setbacks. However, in the past 20 years, Colombia has leaped to becoming an economic powerhouse in Latin America. On the quest for distinguished coffees, you simply cannot miss Colombia. Its quality reputation stems from hard work and excellent terrain.

Colombia's natural beauty stems from its extreme diversity: two oceans, snow-peaked mountains and glaciers, endless deserts as well as the Amazon basin are found in this unique South American gem. The west of the country is dominated by three Andes mountain ranges, called the Cordilleras.

Due to their proximity to the equator, several microclimates are formed within these mountain ranges. Add to that altitude ranges from 800 to 2,200 meters, and you will start to realize why Colombian coffees are so diverse.
