This coffee, which only makes its grand debut in the autumn, will not be absent this year.

A little friend said: he spent the hottest summer in Cheetham, making a cup hot and strong as fire; having a glass of ice droplets makes his heart cool.

When it comes to autumn, it's time for Xing Dad's chef to take the stage. After all, autumn is such a layered season. The autumn blend of Guatemala Antigua with elegant spices and Sumatra with herbal flavor means that this coffee is destined to go with all the food on the holiday table. This is also the original purpose of its matching.

In some countries, this coffee is also known as "Thanksgiving Day synthesis", eating full turkey and drinking a mouthful of coffee. As long as it feels right, it's beautiful.

Thanksgiving Day is in November every year, thick autumn days are suitable for colder weather, the tail of this summer, the beginning of autumn, but also like Amway you such a coffee.

East Timor is located in the sea north of Australia and is dotted with many small coffee farms. If you take a closer look at the selected story cards, you can find the scattered spire huts scattered all over the land.

Starbucks is working with local coffee cooperatives to build medical facilities and believes that a better living environment will help coffee farmers grow higher-quality coffee beans. When it comes to Starbucks' history with East Timor, there is a great god coming on stage. That's Dave Dave Olson. It doesn't matter if you are not familiar with the name, but you must have seen this picture. Yes, he is the father of concentrated baking! A legendary existence.

After joining Starbucks in 1986, Olson was in charge of the company's coffee program until he retired in 2013. He not only helped the company set up the R & D department, but also founded the corporate social responsibility department. Every CSR you attend has something to do with the old man's proposal in the picture. Over the next few years, Olson began to take a job that his partners around the world dreamed of. Daily work: travel around the world, buy raw beans, visit coffee plantations.

In East Timor in the 1980s, the economy was particularly backward, the roads were rugged, the houses on the streets were extremely humble, and people had nothing, not to mention the coffee industry.

Over the next few years, the coffee industry in East Timor slowly took shape, and people found that growing coffee could change lives. Sam Filiaci, a local coffee merchant, faxed hundreds of potential buyers in the hope that they could buy coffee beans from East Timor. Among them is Starbucks.

At that time, East Timor was still part of Indonesian territory (East Timor declared independence in 2002), the political situation was chaotic, and few people were willing to do business. Olson was the only one who replied to the fax.

Olson first set foot in East Timor in 1994, buying 120 bags of raw coffee beans from Filiaci. This is actually not a large number.

"I know they have come up with the best batch of beans. So I bought these beans and firmly believed that they could do better. "

Although Olson said the coffee beans didn't bake much when they were bought back, the deal was a magical starting point. From 1994 to the present, Filiaci is still our exclusive supplier, and the coffee beans acquired are sold only to Starbucks.

"the strong aroma of flowers and the sweetness of malt, accompanied by a smooth and soft taste, are very comfortable to drink, and there is no burden on the tongue."

"flushing a pot of East Timor beads with Chemex gives you a feeling of drinking sweet juice." It is more suitable to interpret the autumn return to Gan.

"anyway, I was attracted by its packaging."

Judging from the color of the packaging, it goes well with autumn. This coffee bean is called East Timor Tattamailao, a deep-baked bean. Tatamailao, the name of the highest peak in East Timor, is 2963 meters above sea level. In the upper right corner of the package is the pattern of the mountain.

Mountain Tatamailau

Then you must also ask, what does a crocodile stand for?

This is a story about the patron saint. In the local language, "Tatamailau" means "grandfather of all things". According to legend, a little boy saved the crocodile's life. In order to repay the boy, the crocodile turned into an island and guarded him. The ridge on the back of the crocodile represents the mountainous natural landscape of East Timor. If you have a chance to drink this coffee and spread out the coffee bean package, you will find that the story is vividly presented in front of your eyes.

Tata Mailao, East Timor, grows at a lower altitude, different from the 1300-1800 meters of East Timor beads, it generally grows only 1250 meters above sea level.

But the quality is the same as high-altitude beans, because it is shaded all the year round and its growth slows down, which makes the coffee berries particularly dense. Interestingly, most Asia-Pacific coffee beans are semi-washed. This East Timor Tatamailao is washed with water, giving it bright floral aromas and acidity, while deep roasting brings out herbal and cocoa flavors.
