FrontStreet Coffee's Brewing Guide: Colombia Narino Supremo SC17/18

Narino is located in southern Colombia, bordering Ecuador to the west, the famous producing region Cauca to the north, and Huila to the east. It is one of the three major producing areas in southern Colombia (Cauca, Huila, Narino) and has always been known for producing high-quality coffee with rich fruit acidity, good sweetness, medium body, and abundant nutty characteristics. It's an excellent choice for single-origin blends or drip coffee.

Due to Narino's unique geographical environment, proximity to the equator, and high mountain terrain, the average cultivation altitude in Narino is relatively high, reaching around 2000 meters. The region's average temperature is the lowest among all Colombian producing regions, with an annual average of 19.9°C, ranging from a minimum of 16°C to a maximum of 25.9°C.

The lower temperature slows down the coffee's growth cycle. During this longer growth period, coffee can accumulate more sugars and form more organic acids. These sugars and organic acids ultimately create the unique acidity and sweetness characteristic of coffee from this region.
