Colombian Green Coffee

About Colombian Coffee

Colombia is one of the world's most recognised coffee-producing countries, with a long tradition of Arabica cultivation across its Andean mountain ranges. The country's geography — with two main harvest seasons in many regions — allows for a consistent year-round supply of green coffee, which is an important consideration for commercial buyers.

Andisi sources Colombian green coffee beans from highland growing regions, making them available to importers, roasters, distributors and other commercial buyers internationally. Colombian green coffee is available in both standard commercial grades and specialty grades.

Buyers can contact Andisi to request specifications, green coffee samples and current availability. Detailed origin information and cupping reports are available for specialty-grade lots.

Coffee-Growing Regions

Colombia's main coffee-growing regions span the three Andean mountain ranges (cordilleras). Key producing departments include Huila, Nariño, Antioquia, Cauca and Tolima, each with distinct microclimates and altitude profiles that influence cup character.

Southern regions such as Huila and Nariño are particularly associated with high-altitude specialty production, while the broader coffee-growing belt (the "Eje Cafetero") produces large volumes of consistent commercial-grade Arabica.

Colombia benefits from two harvest seasons in many regions — the main crop (October–February) and the mitaca or fly crop (April–June) — providing buyers with more flexible sourcing windows compared to single-harvest origins.

Andisi sources from producers and cooperatives across Colombian growing regions. Specific origin details are available on request depending on current availability.

Varieties, Processing & Cup Profile

Arabica Varieties

Common varieties include Castillo, Caturra, Colombia and Typica. Castillo is widely grown for its disease resistance and consistent yield; Caturra and Typica are associated with higher cup quality in specialty lots.

Processing Methods

The washed process is predominant in Colombia, producing clean, bright cups. Natural and honey-processed lots are available from certain regions and producers, offering different flavour profiles for specialty buyers.

Cup Characteristics

Colombian Arabica is known for bright acidity, medium to full body and a clean, well-rounded profile. High-altitude lots from Huila and Nariño often show fruit-forward notes and complexity suitable for specialty roasting.
