Colombia

Colombia (the variety, not the country) was released by Cenicafe in 1982 as the first major disease-resistant cultivar for Colombian growers. A composite of Caturra x Timor Hybrid crosses, it was designed to maintain productivity while providing leaf rust resistance. Though largely superseded by Castillo, Colombia variety laid the groundwork for modern Colombian disease-resistant breeding and remains in production.
