What's with the "Cuba Blue Mountain" coffee?
Recently, my friends always ask me about the so-called Cuba Blue Mountain, saying that it is said that the beans are as delicious as the Blue Mountains but very cheap.
Here in Winnie, I will talk to you about the so-called "Cuban Blue Mountain Coffee".
I checked that in English, Cuban cuba and Blue Mountain blue mountain are absolutely not related to each other. Why does the word "Cuban Blue Mountain" appear in Chinese?
Although Chinese people don't know much about coffee, many people know that Blue Mountain is the top coffee, and the fraud technology of Chinese people can also be regarded as the quintessence of Chinese, so there is a phenomenon of "buy two bags of coffee beans and get one bag of Blue Mountain free" and "Best Blue Mountain 39 pounds". This blames the cunning of profiteers, and what is more sad is that ignorant consumers. Without such profiteers, there would not be such blatant counterfeit goods. Without the blindness and credulity of consumers, profiteers simply have no room to act recklessly.
The so-called Cuban Blue Mountains actually has nothing to do with the Jamaican Blue Mountains. This is a hypocritical coffee marketing method from Taiwan. This kind of elephant beans are big, sell elephants quite well, and are big and neat after baking. So it is called "Cuba Blue Mountain" by some businessmen, but it does not bear any resemblance to the real Jamaica Blue Mountain in appearance and taste. Go to the foreign trade market to buy a so-called "foreign trade goods" fake brand, it is at least quite close to the real brand in style and texture, but this Cuban Blue Mountain is completely selling dog meat!
The so-called Blue Mountain of Cuba is actually just a kind of elephant bean. It is generally believed that the bigger the coffee, the better, mainly because the beans are roasted neatly and can be applied within a certain range. But in terms of agriculture, too big agricultural products may not taste good, too big apples are not delicious, and too big watermelons are not delicious. What about coffee beans that are too big? It is not necessarily the best, and you can't lean on the Blue Mountain casually. For raw coffee beans, the only thing that matters is the taste, which is the only criterion that determines whether the coffee is good or bad.
Elephant bean, giant coffee bean (Elephant bean), which is 3 or more times larger than other coffee beans, has a taxonomic name Maragogype, derived from Maragogype County in the state of Bahia, Brazil, where the taxonomic status of Giant Coffee Bean was first established in 1870 as an Arabica derived species (hybrid).
The taste of Cuban elephant beans: although not balanced, it has a bright, bright, fresh and sour taste.
Let's not discuss whether Blue Mountains or "Cuba Blue Mountains" coffee tastes better here. It's a matter of opinion, just as some people like Maotai while others like Erguotou.

Nicaragua coffee is obscure compared with Guatemala coffee. Compared with high mountain beans in Guatemala, Nicaraguan beans are more balanced and lack a little of their own characteristics. Its particles are moderate in size, mild in taste and very aromatic and mellow. Nicaragua is located in central Central America, and the best coffee in Nicaragua is produced in Mataga.
