About coffee from Colombia
Colombia is one of the world's largest arabica producers, and many regions get two harvests a year. High-altitude areas like Huila and Nariño are known for sweet, balanced coffees with caramel and fruit, and Colombian producers are behind many of today's experimental fermentations.
What the process means
In a natural (dry) process, the whole coffee cherry dries in the sun with the fruit still on the bean. That usually gives a heavier body and riper, fruitier flavors like berry and tropical fruit.
