The rich and flavorsome coffee embodies the vibrant spirit of Molly Malone, the Irish folklore heroine famously immortalized in bronze in Dublin's city center. The legend of Molly dates back to the 17th century when, as the song goes, an attractive young woman sold cockles and mussels on Dublin's cobbled streets - coincidentally around the same time the city's first coffee house opened. Molly's Blend, which consists of 100% Colombian beans roasted to perfection here on the Emerald Isle, pays tribute not only to the city Molly symbolizes, but to the art and tradition of Irish storytelling.
Colombia is one of the top three producers of coffee in the world and the largest producer of washed Arabica coffees. Each year Colombia exports over 13 million bags consuming 2.5 million bags themselves. Colombia only produces washed Arabica coffee. There are three primary varieties grown in Colombia and the coffee is referred to by the region in which it is grown.
