Before we talk about this bean, let's talk about Blue Mountain Coffee.

When many people go to coffee shops, the coffee they often order is' Blue Mountain', Blue Mountain. In fact, this cup of coffee is not 'Blue Mountain' at all, so is it really Blue Mountain? or is it actually Blue Mountain Coffee, which is very 'Blue Mountain (Taiwanese pronunciation)'?

I often see signs in the coffee shop outside that say 'Special XX Blue Mountain' and '100% XX Blue Mountain' XX is not about Jamaica, but some other places. What's so special about Blue Mountain? Everyone is desperate to trade his ID for a higher 'price'.

In Tokyo, a 100% Blue Mountain Coffee can cost 60,000 yen. Blue Mountain Coffee was once recognized as one of the best coffee in the world, and its production country is in the Blue Mountains of the Caribbean island nation of Jamaica, so if you see the Blue Mountains of Taiwan, please don't believe it!

The Blue Mountains are more than 2100 meters high, stretching from Jamaica to the east. With cool weather, foggy, rich rainfall and harmonious land, Rain Water is one of the best places in the world to grow coffee beans.

Apart from some competition beans, Blue Mountain Coffee really holds the throne of the most expensive coffee in the world. Maybe there is some kind of business story that makes him worth it. Let's not talk about this. I haven't seen him leave its ranking in the high-priced beans trade in a large amount of coffee.

And Japan can be said to be a big buyer of blue mountain beans, blue mountain beans have a rich and round taste, harmonious flavor, balanced and full appearance of beans, which makes it worth a lot of money.

But many gluttons do not regard Blue Mountain as a treasure.

In addition to its ultra-high unit price (the price of raw beans produced by a good national treasure Blue Mountain Farm or processing plant is even higher than US $60 / kg), because its balanced taste makes many gluttons feel nothing special, it can be a 'great coffee', but in the mouth of some gluttons, it is not 'special'.

Coffee, therefore, the trading volume is not so huge, of course, its production capacity is not high!

However, with their reputation and through some different business practices, some businessmen renamed the beans to "XX Blue Peas" in order to make more profits.

So, the next time you order Blue Mountain Coffee, please pay special attention to whether the Blue Mountain you drink is really Blue Mountain or very Blue Mountain Coffee--

The blue mountain coffee beans in Kaifeng are 100% blue mountain coffee beans from R.S.W Farm.

R.S.W is an abbreviation composed of three coffee farms, Resource, Sherwood Forest and Whitfield Hall. Among the three estates, Sherwood Forest has the largest planting area.

The grains of raw beans are full

There are almost no defective beans

The production process of this raw coffee bean is complicated, which is similar to 'semi-washing' fermentation to remove the pulp, and then dried in 100% sun to the extent that it can be exported, and then packed for export.

The unit purchase price is about 1900NTD/KG.

It is really a very high-priced product, drink occasionally-- often drink will go bankrupt!

Baking method: direct fire

After two days of raising beans, the water temperature is 90 degrees and the water temperature is 20g / 300CC.

The dry aroma is quite charming, smelling like super sweet coffee with a touch of spices and tea.

The wet aroma has some berry flavor, citrus aroma and spice feeling.

The imported drink is full of sugarcane-like sweetness, obvious sugarcane aroma, balanced taste, high sweetness, high acidity and ordinary acidity. It is very suitable for people who do not like acid very much, but it is very expensive.

Personal opinion:

The integrity of this bean is still quite good, but the blue bean has not made a strong impression on me in the past two or three years.

Perhaps due to the change of global climate, there is a big shock in production and quality. I can only say that it is not bad. Although the level has declined, there is still a certain quality.

Although the sense of balance is good, there are sour, sweet and fragrant, but there is no particularly outstanding performance, coupled with the high unit price, it is not strongly recommended to drink a lot every day, but for those who want to try the flavor, buy half a pound or a little more in the retail market. I think it's not bad!

After all, Blue Mountain always has to make a pilgrimage!

You can tell people that what I drank was the real Blue Mountain.
