People often ask: what is boutique coffee? What's the difference between fine coffee and ordinary coffee? What's so special about it?

Generally speaking, the so-called boutique coffee is a cup of coffee with good flavor characteristics.

Some coffee beans that can be seen on the market, such as Blue Mountain, Kona, Hawaii, Mokamadali, etc., have a particularly high added value: they have good flavor characteristics, but these coffees are generally called "premium coffee beans". It is completely different from the boutique coffee to be described.

In fact, there is no too precise definition and explanation of "boutique coffee" itself. The concept of boutique coffee has always been vague, vague and freely interpretable. For consumers, boutique coffee is the coffee in the cup of coffee drinkers, which has a wonderful liquid flavor, and can be praised by consumers and make coffee drinkers very satisfied. On the other hand, the delicious coffee means that the flavor has a remarkable impression that people can remember; it has a rich feeling, refreshing, bright sour taste and so on when drinking, and then gradually becomes sweet in the mouth until it disappears.

Therefore, in order to ensure the production of a cup of high-quality coffee and the wonderful flavor of the coffee in the cup, we must implement a unified system, process and quality management in all stages from the selection of coffee beans to the filling of coffee in the cup.

Although this process varies in different regions or countries, it does not mean that there is no consensus on the understanding of fine coffee. If you want to be rated as a boutique coffee, you must have several important qualifications: one of them is that coffee beans must have a clear "traceability", that is, coffee beans must report a clear "production resume". Can clearly know which country, which region, which estate coffee beans are produced. There is also a so-called "aroma identification", which is called a cup test, which is similar to the wine tasting nature in wine. In general, coffee cannot be called "boutique coffee" without clear traceability and unqualified aroma identification.
