'''Coffee production in Colombia''' has a reputation for producing mild, well-balanced [[coffee]] beans. Colombia's average annual coffee production of 11.5 million bags is the third total highest in the world, after Brazil and Vietnam, though highest in terms of the arabica bean. The beans are exported to United States, Germany, France, Japan, and Italy. Most coffee is grown in the [[Colombian coffee growing axis]] region, while other regions focus on quality instead of volumes, such as [[Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta]]. In 2007, the [[European Union]] granted Colombian coffee a [[protected designation of origin]] status. In 2011, UNESCO declared the "Coffee Cultural Landscape" of Colombia, a World Heritage site. | '''Coffee production in Colombia''' has a reputation for producing mild, well-balanced [[coffee]] beans.
