Whats so special about columbian coffee ??!
My favorite cup of coffee will be a Colombian Supremo with lots of sugar and a hefty splash of half and half. So, black or doctored up, some of us simply prefer Colombian coffee to the many other varieties. It tends to be smooth, without the smoky or "biting" flavor some coffees can have.
Currently, French roast coffee is very popular. This tells us only how it's roasted, not the variety, but I'd guess that most French roasts use one of a few varieties. It is very dark roasted, and tastes burned to me.
We who really love our coffee generally know exactly which type we love, and it certainly isn't always Colombian--well, at my house it is!
By the way: "ColUmbian" means "having to do with the United States or Christopher Columbus." ColOmbian means "having to do with the South American country, Colombia." They grow lots of coffee in Colombia, very little if any in the US.

Answers: It isn't special, it just has a unique flavor. Colombian (and Colombian Supremo) are most often roasted to a "medium" roast. That means not too dark, and not too light.

I drink my coffee black with NO additives and I make it the Melitta way as well. Columbian, to me, is the most flavorful as well as less acidic than most coffees. Arabica is good as well. If you drink coffee black, as I do, you know how good a full-bodied flavorful coffee is and that is because of Columbian beans.
There's cocaine in it.
