The Historical Origin of Yejia Xuefei

At first, Yejassefi's coffee trees were planted by European monks (a bit like Belgian monks growing wheat to brew beer), and later by farmers or cooperatives. Coffee trees are naturally scattered in forests, countryside and backyards. During the harvest season, the Ethiopian Coffee Trading Company will go to town to buy coffee beans collected by farmers and eventually sell them under the brand name "Yega Xuefei".

The flavor of Yejia Xuefei

Although Yejia Xuefei is petite, she is gentle and delicate, sweet and lovely. Yega Chuefei exudes an extremely complex aroma and shows an extremely excellent taste that is difficult to describe. In general, the dry aroma of Yega Chuefei is full of fruit, with strong aromas of dried fruit, strawberry, mango and apricot jam. Wet fragrance is like sweet syrup, like sticky apricot juice, wrapped in plain honey or chocolate. The entrance is not strong, the mellow thickness is medium, the sour taste is not obvious, but it is lively and bright, like fruit black tea. The phrase "coffee entrance, flowers in full bloom" is the most appropriate description.

There are many high-quality coffee processing plants in the Yegashafi region, and a lot of caffeine comes from these processing plants and becomes more expensive. One of them is Kebel Aricha Mill Sunshine Yegashafi, which is also what we often call ARICHA beans. It is rated as Gr.1 or G1 (the highest grade of Ethiopian coffee) by ECX through exquisite sun treatment by Kebel Aricha processing plants, and is known as the "king of fruit".

After screening the available coffee cherries, the treatment factory puts the whole coffee cherries with intact pulp and peel in the elevated shed for sun treatment, which is a way of putting in high-intensity human labor, isolating contact with the ground, preventing the miscellaneous smell of soil in the process of sun exposure, and creating an unusually clean fruit flavor. After more than two weeks of sun exposure, the dark brown coffee fruit is stored professionally, waiting for the whole flavor to ripen. Before shipping, the processing plant will take the coffee beans out of the coffee cherries, and the sweetness can be imagined.

The grading of Yega Xuefei

According to the different ways of handling raw coffee beans, Yega Xuefei can be divided into two categories:

Category An is the washing method, and the grade standard is set by the American Fine Coffee Society SCAA. It is divided into Gr-1;Gr-2. The smaller the Arabic numeral is, the higher the grade is. The style of G1 Yega Chuefei is distinct. The flavor of citrus and floral flavor in the coffee liquid is an irresistible delicacy for everyone.

Category B is sun-treated coffee raw beans, with a grade of Gr-1;Gr-3;Gr-4;Gr-5, and the same highest grade G1 sun Yega Chevy is fruity. Opening the freshly baked G1 Sun Yega Chevy coffee bag can subvert people's original understanding of coffee. Only those who have tasted the highest grade sun Yega Chevy will believe that coffee is a kind of fruit.

Yirgacheffe Aricha Grade 1 raw bean color is yellow and green, is a typical sun-cured coffee color, particles are uniform and full, few defective beans, using ordinary sack packaging export, sacks printed with basic information of coffee (processing plant, exporters, ICO coding, processing methods, producing areas) sacks inside the sacks are plastic bags for agricultural products packaging, the use of light slow roasting method can best reflect its characteristics.

The best way of baking and cooking

Beans with such a gorgeous flavor are certainly not suitable for medium-deep baking, so light or moderate baking is recommended. As for cooking methods, hand brewing and siphon brewing are the best. When you grind the beans, you can smell the sweet smell of the sun fruit.

Round and sweet, rich aromas of flowers and fruits, outstanding sweetness and weak acidity, showing a soft and clean temperament as a whole.

The flavor of the fermented wine of wet ripe berries makes people not believe that this is Yega Chuefei, but this kind of wet fragrance is not very popular. But from the extremely smooth entrance to the delicate mellow thickness, the sour and sweet appearance of ripe fruit is really amazing, more sweet than any Yega I have ever drunk before. Yu Yun's performance is also quite good, worthy of the "fruit bomb", which can basically guarantee that the mouth can still feel sweet for half an hour after drinking.
