Question:

Why is Colombia famous for their coffee?

Answer:
Well, I have a whole page explaining in detail the reason for the popularity of Colombian coffee. It is located here: Colombian Coffee History.

I will try to give you a brief summary here. Colombian coffee is grown at high altitudes in the volcanic soil provided in Colombia. The coffee from these beans are rich, full bodied, and perfectly balanced. They are Arabica beans, which are higher quality beans. The best coffee comes from the eastern, more mountainous region of Colombia located near Bogota and Bucaramanga. These beans produce a coffee that is richer, heavier, and less acidic. Coffee experts believe that Colombian coffee is the finest in the world.
