The Brazilian coffee industry follows the principle of picking first and screening later, but in other Latin American countries, people pick only fully ripe fruit, and if it is not mature enough, growers will leave the fruit on the tree. Why is there such a big difference between the two methods? The reason lies in the picking and treatment of raw beans. First, in smaller boutique coffee countries other than Brazil, it is almost impossible to screen raw coffee beans after picking, so workers must ensure that coffee is strictly screened at the time of picking. Second, pickers in other countries pick coffee when the sugar content reaches 19-23:00, while growers in Brazil start picking when the sugar content reaches 23-30. The fruit whose sugar content reaches this value has extremely high sweetness, and the maturity of the fruit is almost perfect.

[taste]

Brazilian coffee taste with a low sour taste, with the sweet and bitter taste of coffee, the entrance is very smooth, and with a hint of grass, slightly bitter in the fragrance, smooth and smooth, the aftertaste can make people comfortable and pleasant. There are no outstanding advantages for Brazilian coffee, but there are no obvious defects. The taste is mild and smooth, the acidity is low, the mellow is moderate, and there is a hint of sweetness. All these soft flavors are mixed together. To distinguish them one by one is the best test for the taste buds, which is why many Santos fans love this kind of coffee, just because it is so mild and ordinary. Santos is suitable for ordinary baking, suitable for brewing in the most popular way, and is the best raw material for making Italian espresso and all kinds of fancy coffee.

[main varieties]

Although coffee is diverse, Brazilian coffee is suitable for the taste of the public. For example, coffee produced in the northern coastal areas has a typical iodine taste, reminiscent of the sea after drinking. This coffee is exported to North America, the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Another kind of coffee that is interesting and worth looking for is washed Bahia coffee. This kind of coffee is not easy to find because Brazil is the world's largest consumer of coffee after the United States, and many of the best coffee can only be found in its domestic market.

In Brazil, the largest producer is Robbins. This kind of coffee is sold in the supermarket. Brazil's Robucht coffee, sold under the name Conillon, accounts for 15 per cent of total production. Old bourbon coffee is grown on some estates in the Serrado district of Minas Greais state in southeastern Brazil. Old varieties of bourbon coffee grown on these estates, such as Capin Branco and Vista Allegre, are also sold on the market. Although they come from the same area, these coffees have their own characteristics. Capingblanco coffee is smoother than Vesta Allegre coffee, while Vesta Allegre coffee is strong and black, both of which have lower acidity. However, like all Brazilian coffee, they are most suitable for drinking when they are fresh and tender, because the older they are, the more acidic they are. These coffee growers have organized themselves into the Brazilian Special Coffee Association (the Speciality Coffee Association of Brazil).

[introduction]

Brazilian coffee generally refers to coffee produced in Brazil. There are many kinds of coffee in Brazil, and like other Arabica coffee, Brazilian coffee is called "Brazils" to distinguish it from "Milds" coffee. The vast majority of Brazilian coffee is unwashed and sun-dried and is classified according to the name of the state of origin and port of transport. Brazil has 21 states, 17 of which produce coffee, but four of them produce the largest, accounting for 98 per cent of Brazil's total output: Parana, SaoPaulo, MinasGerais and EspiritoSanto, with the southern state producing the most, accounting for 50 per cent of total production.
