Colombian Medellin Supremo Coffee Beans

As one of the finest premium Colombian coffees, Medellin Supremo coffee is known to be full or medium in body with a rich, sweet taste and complex acidity.

A very well-balanced coffee, Supremo is also known for its pleasant aroma. Coffee connoisseurs note that Colombian Supremo coffee is bright enough to enjoy in the morning (e.g., with a Medium Roast) while also rich enough to serve in the evening (e.g., Dark Roast).

Medellin Supremo coffee is comparable to Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee though with a higher level of acidity. Medellin Coffee is one of the principal Milds.
