The South American country of Colombia has very strong roots in the coffee industry, as it was once the world’s largest producer of washed coffee beans. Annually, Colombia exports approximately 12.5 million bags and consumes 2 million bags internally. Coffee beans are produced in three main geographical areas, trisected by the Andes mountain range.            

Excelso Colombian coffee beans are large with a screen size of 15-16, second only to the Supremo bean with a screen size of 17. Colombian coffee is graded before shipment according to bean size, and Excelso beans accounts for the greatest volume of coffee exported from Colombia.   

Our speciality Colombian coffee beans are medium-dark roasted, producing a strong coffee with notes of sweet citrus and lemon. It’s a versatile coffee that can easily be cold brewed and served using NitroPress.

Packed and supplied in 100% biodegradable resealable bags and available for you to buy online as whole beans for you to grind yourself, but we've also made our Colombia Excelso available to purchase as freshly ground coffee in coarse (for cold brew) or medium grind.
