...in Cartagena
Recently, colleagues in Cartagena de Indias Colombia were introduced to Cafe Vega dark roasted coffee. Colombia, the world's largest producer of mild washed Arabica coffee, produced a total of 14.2 million 60 kilo bags between January and December 2016 (https://www.federaciondecafeteros.org/). However, other coffees are enjoyed by discerning consumers. Cafe Vega coffee was well received.Sights of Cartagena
