Colombian Coffee & Morning Rituals

“There is nothing like waking up to fresh Colombian coffee in Medellín. It’s not just a drink; it’s an entire emotional ritual that sets my soul before songwriting.”

In this opening segment of Billboard’s Cafecito Con, Juanes sits down with freshly brewed Colombian drip coffee, reflecting on how growing up in Antioquia shaped his musical rhythm, the importance of morning contemplation, and how coffee culture grounds him between international tours.

Café de Antioquia & Juanes' Creative Routine

Medellín & the Antioquia department are celebrated for high-altitude Arabica beans yielding mild acidity, chocolate notes, and sweet citrus aromas. Juanes credits this grounded morning calm as the mental space where classic hooks like A Dios Le Pido and Es Por Ti first began.
