The latest list of the world's most expensive coffee is no longer Kopi Luwak, at $5000 per kilogram.

"Kopi Luwak" is one of the most popular Kopi Luwak in China, a kind of coffee with special flavor fermented by the stomach of civets. Its output is rare and expensive, and it was once regarded as "coffee supreme" and "most expensive coffee". But now, these titles no longer belong to Kopi Luwak. If you think the price of 268 yuan for a Kopi Luwak is ridiculously expensive, I'm sorry. Kopi Luwak has been pulled down from the throne of "sky-high price" by one upstart after another.

The latest list of the world's most expensive coffee

NO.1 name 90 + Company's # 227 batches

Producing area: 90 + Panamanian Manor

Price: in this year's sensational online auction for raw coffee beans, 90+ 's # 227 batches finally set a record at a high price of US $US$5000 per kilogram.

The coffee was created by Jose Alfredo, which is in charge of handling raw beans from El Salvador to 90 + Panama Manor, and Wang ze Chad Wang, who won the world coffee brewing champion in 2017.

The description for # 227 is:

"after picking the fully ripe bright red fruit by hand, sieving out the too small size and washing with water, the hypoxia fermentation is carried out in a confined space, and the fermentation temperature is also controlled at a lower room temperature, that is, making coffee while blowing air-conditioning.

Soak in clean water and ferment for about 72 hours, followed by sun drying. It is about 1 or 2 layers thick on the tanning bed, and it takes 21 days of sun exposure to achieve a completely different unique flavor! "

During the 72-hour fermentation process, whether the yeast scattered in the environment was captured naturally or screened. In fact, in the 2017 + global online label batch, there are as many as five or six items made by Jose Alfredo. Friends who have tried to drink reflect that some of the items have obvious flavor characteristics like bean curd or soy sauce. I believe that different fermentation methods have been introduced in the process of post-production.

NO. 2 name 90 + look forward to ruby summer

Origin: Rosa Manor, Panama

Price: about $1000 + per pound

Claim to be the best coffee in the world! 90 + look forward to ruby

The method used to treat raw beans is called "ruby treatment", which is also the patented method of 90 +, a famous boutique coffee trader, and coffee beans treated in this way are said to show rich and extreme fragrance.

Because the winner of the two consecutive World baristas Competition (WBC) in 2014 and 2015, the halo of double-ingredient makes this cooked bean firmly on the list of expensive coffee.

In a coffee shop in Shanghai, a small cup of 180ml costs 1010 yuan. Looking forward to Ruby Perci Ruby, which won the first and second place in the 2014 and 2015 World hand baristas Competition (WBrC,World Barista Championship), is a boutique coffee with a price of about 24000 yuan per kilogram and 1010 yuan per cup.

Sofia Manor background

In 2008, Willem Boot bought an extremely high-altitude estate from Ricardo Koyner, the owner of Catova, and named it Finca Sophia, the town of Volcan in Panama.

Sofia Manor, at an altitude of 1900-2150 meters, is one of the highest coffee farms in Central America. From the day Sofia Manor was founded, William and his partners have been trying to explore the boundaries of the highest elevations where the world's top coffee is grown.

Named after Sophia, the goddess of wisdom in ancient Greek mythology, the Logo design comes from a kind of highland pigeon (called Torcaza in Spanish) that lives in the manor. The estate is jointly owned by William and his American partner, Equator Coffee Roasters, and is day-to-day managed by local coffee farm operators in Panama.

There was an episode in the preliminary round of washing Rose Summer. During the discussion, a senior judge in the United States questioned that this coffee, which received a high score of 93 + from 12 judges, should be a honey-treated coffee. Because of its complex flavor and high sweet-sour balance, people suspect that this is not the taste of the coffee itself, but the flavor brought by the treatment, but it turns out that this is a rosy summer treated with complete washing. All the amazing flavors come from the plants themselves. The flavors described by the judges include intense aromas of orange blossoms, peach, ripe grapes, blackcurrant, bright citrus acid, berries, bubble acidity, syrup and a lingering finish.
