Coffees From Latin America

See Latin America coffee production.

Rare blend 

This is one of the rarest java blends in the world. Haiti coffee is hard to find basically because it is not grown as widely as other coffee granules in the Latin American regions. One of the main reasons is of course the weather in the country. Haiti is frequently awash with rain, not to mention the political turmoil that has beset the country for quite some time.  

Despite its rarity, Haitian coffee still enjoys huge following perhaps because of the tanginess and sweetness that it has for flavor. According to coffee growers, this is brought on by the volcanic soil and the low altitudes that the javas are used to. 

Old name, old blend

Although it has already changed its name to Dominican Republic, the country’s coffee blends is still being called Santo Domingo, its old name. 

Coffee in this part of the world is grown on mountain ranges that meet at the center of the small island. These coffees are then sold in main markets namely Ocoa, Bani, Barahona, and Cibao.    

Bani is lighter than the other two while the Barahona has a more acidic flavor to it. 

Coffee in Dominican Republic is actually being compared closely to the ones grown in the Jamaican High Mountains. 

Giant of industry 

When it comes to mild Coffee, Columbia is one of the giants in the field. In fact, Columbia holds 12 percent of the world market in terms of coffee production. It is of course second only to Brazil, which has about 30-35 percent of the market; but this is quite a feat especially for a small country like Columbia. 

Coffee in this country is grown in high altitudes and is already wet-processed before being shipped. The central and the East Cordillera regions are the best producers of java. Central regions such as the Manizales and the Medellin are known all over the world. Medellin, in fact, is very famous for its heavy flavor but acidity that is balanced. The Manizeles, on the other hand, is, thinner and less acidic, much the same with another coffee blend, the Armenia.    

In the Eastern cordilleras, the Bogota and the Bucaramanga are the most famous. The Bogota, which is considered as one of the world’s finest blend is less acidic than the famous Medellin but is still flavorful. Bucaramanga, on the other hand, is made of soft beans that are heavy in body but very rich in flavor.
