Introduction of Coffee Flavor in different producing areas of South America
Well-known representative coffee: Santos
Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer, with the first total output in the world, accounting for about 1 of the world's total output. Brazil is mainly produced in the central and southern provinces.
Brazil is suitable for growing coffee, the terrain is relatively flat, coffee gardens are mostly less than 1200 meters above sea level, and there is no shade from big trees, because raw and ripe berries are picked at the same time, so it is not fine coffee.
The quality of Brazilian coffee is average but less excellent, its bean quality is soft, and it is obviously not resistant to heat in the roasting process. Among the varieties, Santos is more famous, which is named after its export port Santos.
Brazilian coffee beans are neutral and can be tasted alone (though a bit monotonous), or mixed with other kinds of coffee beans to form a comprehensive coffee, which is generally considered to be indispensable in blending.
Famous representative coffee: Colombia
Colombia is the world's second largest exporter of coffee, accounting for about 15% of global production. Most of its coffee trees are grown in three mountains stretching north and south, with only Arabica species.
Although its output ranking is lower than that of Brazil, the coffee beans are of good quality, rich and unique aroma, sweet in acid and moderate bitterness, which is very suitable for single drink or mixture.
Colombian beans and Brazilian beans are the best choice of basic beans for blended coffee, but their flavor is more mellow and more fragrant than Brazilian beans. In addition to individual taste, they are also often used to blend coffee to increase the sweetness of coffee and to blend the bitterness of other coffee.
Famous representative coffee: Peru (Peru)
Peru is one of the major coffee producers in South America, and coffee is Peru's largest export of agricultural products, which has grown significantly in recent years. It can be seen from the map that the Andes mountains run parallel to the coast in Peru. More than 90% of Peruvian coffee is grown in the north, in valleys east of the capital Lima, and in forest areas on the slopes of the Andes.
Peruvian coffee beans have a round taste, moderate mellow, not thick not light, soft acid is one of its major characteristics, with a slightly nutty flavor. As the export volume increases and coffee lovers become familiar, more and more people like Peruvian coffee with its mellow taste and soft sour taste.
Well-known representative coffee: Galapagos
Between Colombia and Peru, Ecuador, which passes through the equator, is one of the few countries in South America that produces both Arabica and robastian coffee.
In fact, Ecuador means "equator" in Spanish. Due to the use of old-fashioned traditional harvesting and handling methods, Ecuadorian coffee is not listed as a boutique coffee, so it is generally rarely seen.
Ecuador faces the Pacific Ocean, and near the equator, about 900km off its west coast, near the equator at 90 degrees west longitude, there is also a dependency of the Galapagos Islands (Galapagos Island), also known as Cologne, which produces the famous Galapagos coffee. In order to protect the natural ecology, the Ecuadorian government has designated the archipelago as a national park and banned the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and other chemicals, so coffee in the Galapagos Islands is recognized as organic coffee.
Galapagos Islands coffee flavor is more balanced and neutral, moderately mellow, with a little obvious but pleasant acidity, with a special aroma. However, because it is rarely seen on the market, not many people talk about this coffee.
