The characteristics and Flavor description of Rosa Coffee the difference between Rose Summer Coffee beans in Rose Summer Village and Jade Manor

Some people say that rose summer coffee is so expensive, what is the taste of rose summer coffee? Front Street thinks Rosedale Coffee tastes like it's not a cup of coffee, it's a cup of herbal tea. Because of the different cultivation areas, the taste of Rose Summer Coffee is also different. But overall, rose summer coffee comes with an elegant and refined flavor. And the famous blue mountain coffee flavor is completely different.

In addition, the summer is actually a variety of coffee, summer Geisha or Gesha (Central America called Geisha) is a precious variety of coffee, with a unique jasmine aroma and bright fruit acid, often dominated in various coffee competitions, prices have become more and more expensive.

Friends who know coffee may know that rose summer coffee is actually grown in Ethiopia's rose summer forest, but because of the low yield, it is not valued, and even used as a windbreak tree; but after arriving in Panama, it became famous. In the end, it is still the difference in environmental climate. Different climatic environment, coffee flavor is definitely different! And front street found a very strange characteristic of rose summer coffee, that is, the more severe the environment, the better the coffee flavor!

Do you have the illusion that since the rose summer of Emerald Manor was introduced from Ethiopia, would it be the same variety as the rose summer coffee of Rose Summer Village? Front Street thinks it's normal to have such an idea, but don't forget that Ethiopia is the gene pool of coffee. Although Panama rose summer coffee beans are imported from Ethiopia, they are different from the varieties and flavors of rose summer coffee in Guixia Village. Although the rose summer variety flavor is exquisite, but such elegant flavor, comes from the specific planting environment. Rose summer varieties are very picky about the growing environment, requiring planting in areas with high altitude, cloud shade or a large number of shade trees and fertile soil. High-altitude rose summer coffee varieties with obvious floral, delicate and elegant fruit acid, so Panama's growing environment is also an important reason for the success of rose summer coffee famous, but also one of the reasons for its popularity around the world.

Then today, Qianjie will introduce you to the Rose Summer Coffee of Guixia Village and the Rose Summer Coffee of Emerald Manor.

What's a rose hill estate?

In 2007, documentary director Adam Overton and his photographer wife Rachel Samuel came across the Gera Coffee Forest in Bench-Maji while filming a documentary on Ethiopian coffee for the Ethiopian government. In the process, they not only rediscovered Ethiopia, but also developed the idea of establishing their own coffee estate and brand. In 2009, they were lucky enough to meet Willem Boot, the famous mule farm owner and BOP judge, and Willem Boot's idea of "returning to Ethiopia to find the birthplace of Guixia" also provided an opportunity for the couple.

Gesha Village Coffee Estate is different from most small Ethiopian farms, it is a large farm with nearly 500 hectares and has its own washing plant, laboratory and so on. The first harvest of 2015 was so well received that, with the assistance of Willem Boot, owner of Panama Mule Farm, the first international bidding was held on May 31, 2017, with 21 microbatches offered by Crescia Village, 19 of which were 120 kg, and several other batches were smaller.

Rosedale Coffee is so popular that many contestants have chosen some batches of this estate to compete and win places, including Zhao Jiabao from Hong Kong who won the 3rd place in the 2017 World Barista Competition with Rosedale Coffee, and Takayuki Ishiya from Japan who won the first Japanese Barista Competition (JBC) in his 10-year competition with Rosedale Coffee.

Ethiopian Rose Summer Coffee

Ethiopia is where coffee originated, but the coffee beans grown in Ethiopia's summer villages today have little genetic connection to the coffee beans we know as Panama's summer. Ethiopia's Gori Gesha coffee is divided into three branches, Gori Gesha (GG): This variety replicates the genetic diversity within the Gori Gesha coffee forest. The red label of Gori-Gesha Village of Qianjie Coffee is Gori-Gesha variety. Illubabor Forest 1974 (IF): Discovered during an expedition to the Illubabor Forest in 1974, an antibody-producing strain was developed by the Ethiopian Research Center. Gesha 1931 (G31): A varietal combination of diverse forests, closely resembling Panama Gesha, selected by plant type, bean-type appearance, mesh size, and cup flavor. The first two rose summer coffee beans and Panama rose summer coffee genes are completely different, and rose summer 1931 according to the official description of rose summer 1931 in terms of plant shape and cup test performance is closest to Panama rose summer, but in fact the degree of genetic identity is very small, so Ethiopia rose summer coffee and Panama rose summer coffee flavor can be said to be completely different.

The red label coffee of Guixia Village in Front Street is sun-treated. The red label coffee of Guixia Village Manor is Gori-Gesha found in Gori Forest.

Emerald Manor Guixia Coffee

Rose summer coffee arrived at emerald manor and fame, this road can be described as a long way. The Geisha variety was discovered in 1931 from Ethiopia's Geisha Forest. Rosewood was then sent to the Coffee Institute in Kenya, introduced to Uganda and Tanzania in 1936, Costa Rica in 1953, and Panama in 1970. Not much attention was paid to the rose until Panama Geisha Hacienda La Esmeralda separated it from the rest of the species in 2003 and became BOP champion in 2004.

The rose summer variety officially entered everyone's sight. Although the rose summer variety flavor is exquisite, but such elegant flavor, comes from the specific planting environment. Rose summer varieties are very picky about the growing environment, requiring planting in areas with high altitude, cloud shade or a large number of shade trees and fertile soil. High-altitude rose varieties of coffee with a distinct floral, refined and elegant fruit acid, such elegant flavor is also one of the reasons for its popularity around the world.

La Esmeralda Estate

Emerald manor, famous for rose summer coffee. In 1964, American banker Rudolf Peterson retired, moved to Panama, and bought Emerald Manor in Poquet, which initially focused on dairy farming. His son, Price, resigned as a doctor to help his father run the farm and introduced Kadura and Kaduai coffee varieties in 1987. He set up a washing plant in 1994 and has since owned his own coffee processing plant. In 1996, he bought Haramiyo Manor, which has a superior geographical environment and good flavor of the original coffee varieties, and merged it into Emerald Manor.

Harami was chosen by the Petersons because it was the coffee beans they grew originally, with pleasant orange and fruity notes that differed from the original taste of Panama coffee. After cup testing coffee beans in different areas of the garden, it was found that they were unknown coffee trees growing in the highest part of the estate. Due to their low yield, the former owners only used them as windbreak trees. As a result, Peterson and his son dug them out and decided to plant coffee trees in this area independently. In 2004, he participated in the BOP of Panama Green Bean Competition and won the championship. After a surprising journey, experts identified that the coffee bean was an Ethiopian rose summer variety. Since then, the Petersons have focused most of their efforts on developing infrastructure to support excellent batch separation and fine processing.

Emerald Manor Rose Summer Coffee is divided into three types:

The red-label batch of roses planted at an altitude of 1600-1800 meters and a cup test score of more than 90 points are mainly produced in Jaramillo and Canas Verdes. Front Street's Red Label Rosedale Coffee is produced in Cannes Vedith and is sun-cured. It has a distinct rose aroma and berry sweetness.

Green label batches are not competitive but still excellent in quality. Green label batches of rose summer are planted at an altitude of 1600-1800 meters, mainly mixed with batches from different plots such as Jaramillo and Canas Verdes. The green label rose summer coffee in Qianjie is divided into sun treatment and washing treatment. Washing has floral fragrance, fruity fruit and citrus aroma acid, and the taste is fresh and clean; while sun treatment has the basic tone of washing treatment and endows it with thick and juicy taste.

The blue label is planted at an altitude of 1400-1500 meters. The blue label is a mixture of rose coffee beans from Jaramillo, Canas Verdes and El Velo. In previous years, the blue label rose summer only had washing treatment, while the blue label batch in 2020 added sun treatment.

However, in the 2021 season, Emerald Manor has cancelled the Blue Label series, and the original production area of Blue Label Rose Summer Coffee has been sold to a brand, and this brand has launched Las Rocas, or volcanic rock rose summer coffee beans. At the end of the consumer market, the original blue label is just a brand change, the flavor is still the same.

Front Street Cooking Advice:

To drink a cup of delicious coffee, Qianjie believes that the freshness of coffee beans is a very important link, and the freshness of coffee beans can maximize the rich flavor of coffee. Front Street Coffee ships coffee beans that are roasted within 5 days, because Front Street knows that the freshness of coffee beans has a great impact on flavor. Front Street Roasters 'motto is "Fresh Roast Good Coffee", so that every customer who orders coffee receives the freshest coffee. Coffee has a growing period of 4-7 days, so when the customer gets it, the flavor is at its best.

Of course, there are also some customers who need the front street to help grind, which does not matter, but the front street has to remind: coffee beans are ground in advance, there is no need to raise beans, because in the process of transportation, the pressure generated by carbon dioxide in the package can also make the coffee flavor mellow, so you can drink a cup immediately after receiving the coffee powder. However, coffee powder needs to be brewed in time, because coffee powder oxidizes faster after contact with air, that is to say, the flavor of coffee will disperse faster, and the flavor of coffee will not be so good. Therefore, Qianjie recommends buying whole beans and grinding them now, so as to better taste the flavor of coffee.

The parameters for brewing coffee in front street:

Front Street selected: V60 filter cup, water temperature 90℃, water powder ratio 1:15, powder amount 15g, grinding degree (China No.20 standard sieve pass rate 80%)

The use of segmented extraction, with 2 times the amount of coffee powder water for stewing, that is, 30 grams of water stewing for 30 seconds, and the reason for the need for stewing process, is to allow coffee powder to exhaust the internal carbon dioxide gas, so that the latter stage of extraction is more stable. Water is injected into the filter cup by small water flow in a circle until 125 grams, and then water is injected into the filter cup until 225 grams. After the water drops in the filter cup are finished, the filter cup is removed. The extraction time is 200 "from the beginning of water injection. Next, shake the whole cup of coffee evenly and pour it into the cup to taste it.
