Colombia is the second-largest producer of coffee in the world and the largest producer of washed and Arabica coffee. They are well known for their high-quality coffee, and about half of their exports come to the United States. Colombia exports approximately 12.5 million bags, and internal consumption is about 2 million bags annually.

Colombia only produces washed Arabica coffee. There are three primary varieties grown in Colombia, and the coffee is referred to by the region in which it is grown. There are many coffee producing regions in the country. Colombia is proficient in creating an abundance of truly delicious and sought after coffee.

This particular type is Supremo; this word is a coffee grading term in Colombia. Supremo coffee beans are slightly larger than Excelso beans. Supremo beans are a screen size of 17 and 18. This type is the most significant bean size grading for Colombian coffee. Supremo and Excelso coffee beans may be harvested from the same tree, but they are sorted by size. The Supremo grade represents the highest possible; the small, less dense beans and peaberries have been removed.

When you buy your speciality coffee from Lalico Coffee, you support small farms producing high-quality coffees. Many benefit from Fairtrade Federation and Rainforest Alliance initiatives that protect workers' rights and the environment.

Our coffee is hand-roasted to order for you. I guarantee it hasn't been sitting on a supermarket shelf for weeks, getting stale! Every batch is individually profile roasted with care. Every coffee has different characteristics, and therefore its individual profile is replicated, keeping high quality consistent.

Kessy and I would like you to experiment with new flavours from different countries, so we often send free samples with your order for you to enjoy.
