Colombian caturra coffee variety is a unique type of Arabica coffee that naturally mutated from the Bourbon variety. Its name comes from a Guarani word meaning “small,” which makes sense because Caturra plants grow shorter than other Bourbon coffee trees. This smaller size allows farmers to plant them closer together, leading to higher yields. Often called “Nanico,” Colombian caturra coffee variety has played a major role in shaping the coffee industry, making it easier for coffee farmers to grow quality coffee more efficiently. Its compact growth and excellent production have made it a favorite among coffee growers worldwide.
