[production area introduction]:
Shakisso is located in the southern part of Guji and Oromia, adjacent to Sidama and Gedeo. Shakisso/Shakiso 's coffee is quite unique, and the coffee it produces has repeatedly attracted market attention. The original meaning of Ninety Plus's legendary bean (nekisse) is from Shaquiso's Nectar from shakisso, and its producing area and name are all from Shaquiso Shakisso.
Local small farmers began growing organic coffee in 2001 and work closely with medium-sized coffee producers because they are familiar with how to grow forest coffee in the highlands. It is one of the micro-producing areas with regional characteristics in the Sidamo producing area. The coffee in this region is quite unique, and the coffee produced has often attracted the attention of the market. The original meaning of Ninety Plus's legendary nekisse comes from Nectar from shakisso, and its producing area and name are all from Shaquiso Shakisso.
After obtaining the raw coffee beans, sometimes in order to pursue the perfect taste, the final screening will be done, so this sunny sidamo can reach the highest level of G1.
Analyze two different [raw bean] treatment methods:
The coffee beans after harvest must enter the treatment program immediately, otherwise they will begin to ferment, making the coffee beans have a bad smell. There are two methods of treatment: "solarization" and "washing", which will cause different flavors. Sun-dried beans have a complete natural mellow flavor, gentle aroma and more gum; washing rules have a good mellow taste, high aroma and lively sour taste.
[sun Sidamo]: the bean body is smaller than Longberry, and it is yellowish in green. in the sun drying field of Sidamo, the coffee is placed in a hemp net wooden rack, and the workers take turns to stir the coffee manually in the sun. Sidamo is usually marked with G4 exit, while water-washed Sidamo is mostly exported at G2 level because of the better sun treatment process.
[washed Sidamo]: coffee raw bean green is slightly gray, some places are thick and some places are small, the acidity is soft and strong, mellow, sweet and spicy, it is one of the courtyard coffee in the highlands of southern Ethiopia. Unlike ordinary African coffee, Sidamo has clear acidity, smooth taste and delicate floral smell.
About the Ethiopian sun exposure (high-shelf sun exposure):
In the past, the Ethiopian sun exposure method used to spread wild coffee fruits directly on the mud ground for exposure. This method has two disadvantages:
1. After picking beans without special screening and treatment, uneven appearance and maturity are mixed together, the process is relatively rough, so the quality of coffee beans is unstable and prone to defective beans.
two。 Coffee farmers usually find an open space near their home to deal with it, so there are often a lot of impurities or dirt on the ground, and coffee is easy to get smelly.
The improved method of tanning, that is, to improve the two shortcomings of the traditional way:
1. When picking beans, only fully ripe crimson coffee cherries are picked. Before exposure, the beans will be screened for defects in the processing plant to make the beans look more average in size and maturity.
two。 Next, use tall wooden frames or whole scaffolding for the sun to avoid the risk of beans smelling on the ground. In the process of exposure, take good care of the beans so that the coffee beans can be evenly exposed to water; every three to five days, coffee workers will manually screen out defective and moldy beans. Therefore, by the end of the exposure, before the beans enter the market to remove the peel and flesh, a bright crimson coffee cherry is already a grade with few defects.
