The variety of coffee beans on the market is very different, from different countries and places of origin, which makes many friends do not know how to start when choosing coffee beans. In front of this article, I will talk to you about how to choose the coffee beans that best suit your flavor.

According to the distribution of coffee producing areas in the world, it can be divided into three major coffee producing areas, namely Africa, America and Africa. Qianjie will introduce to you the general flavor of the following three major coffee producing areas.

Qianjie first introduces the African region. African coffee beans are famous for their unique acidity. When it comes to the producing areas of the African region, we have to mention Ethiopia, because Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee. All the coffee varieties in the world spread from here. At present, there are still a large number of wild coffee tree species in Ethiopia, because there are so many species, and the Ethiopian government is reluctant to tell the specific news of these species under the protection of wild coffee trees.

Among them, the most famous coffee producing areas in Ethiopia are the Yegashifi producing area and the Sidamo producing area. Qianjie bought a lot of coffee beans from these two producing areas, including washed Yega Xuefei coffee beans with lemon and citrus flavors. There are also coffee beans from the Sidamo producing area with sour berries. For example, the Huakui coffee beans purchased from Qianjie are from the Sidamo producing area. And Sakuran is loved by everyone for its rich strawberry cream flavor.

Another African country is also very famous for its coffee beans, that is, Kenyan coffee beans. Kenyan coffee beans are also famous for their sour quality, but the sour quality of Kenya is a little different from that of Ethiopia. To put it simply, Kenyan coffee beans tend to be sour coffee beans with fresh sour flavors, such as virgin fruit and strawberry fruit. Azaria, a kind of coffee in front of the street, is a very classic Kenyan bean with a strong flavor of fresh virgin fruit in the entrance. This kind of acid is very pleasant.

According to Qianjie, coffee beans are generally treated in the sun in Africa. For example, the sun-red cherries on the front street are treated with the ancient and primitive sun treatment. The red cherry in the sun is to put the whole coffee cherry with intact pulp and peel in the elevated shed for sun treatment, so as to isolate the contact with the ground and prevent the soil smell caused by direct exposure. After more than two weeks of sun exposure, store the dark brown coffee fruit and wait for the whole flavor to be ripe. Before shipment, the processing factory will take out the coffee beans from the coffee cherries. After this kind of sun treatment, the acidity of beans is lower. The sweetness is obvious and has alcohol thickness, but the cleanliness is not as high as that of washing treatment. In Kenya, raw beans are generally treated with 72-hour washing, so the acidity in Kenya is relatively clean, with a taste like virgin fruit, black plum and berry. Therefore, you can choose your favorite African beans according to your favorite taste.

On the other hand, the acidity of Latin American coffee beans is not the unique acidity of African coffee, but mainly based on nuts and chocolate. Among them, the two most representative producing countries in the Americas are Brazil and Colombia. The planting topography of coffee trees in Brazil is mainly based on two kinds of topography, one is the Brazilian plateau above 200 meters above sea level, and the other is the Brazilian plain below 200 meters above sea level. Mainly grow bourbon varieties. The taste of Brazilian coffee is mainly characterized by low acidity, nutty flavor, balanced flavor and moderate thickness. Just like this Brazilian red fruit coffee on the front street, it has a rich flavor of nuts, chocolate and cream. In addition, there are many kinds of coffee in Brazil, and the treatment is mainly in the sun. The coffee beans produced by the Brazilian Queen's Manor are also of very high quality. the coffee beans on the front street are from the Brazilian Queen's Manor, which won the championship in the Brazilian COE competition. Many large and small estates in Brazil are honored to enter the competition, but the Queen's Manor has won the award for many years, which shows that the Queen's Manor is of very high quality compared to the average Brazilian coffee bean.

This is one of the reasons why Qianjie Coffee put this Brazilian coffee bean on the shelves. Qianjie Coffee also carried out cup testing and brewing experiments before it was put on the shelves. The entrance has an obvious sweetness, a hint of lemon aroma, a strong nutty flavor, and an obvious dark chocolate flavor in the latter part. The overall feeling is relatively round, which is a coffee bean that can represent the overall characteristics of Brazilian coffee. At the same time, it can reflect its own unique liveliness. This is the ultimate reason why Qianjie put this Brazilian coffee bean on the shelves.

Because Brazil and Colombia are relatively close to each other, people like to compare the coffee from these two countries. Colombian coffee has a balanced flavor and a more smooth taste, just like a gentleman in coffee. Colombia Huilan is the most famous coffee producing area in Colombia. it belongs to the mountain topography. Coffee is grown on the slopes of the inclined valley. Rain Water is abundant and Arabica varieties are selected. The coffee grown in the unique natural climate has a full taste. Nutty, dark chocolate aromas and supple and pleasant acidity. Because Colombian coffee beans are mainly grown in high mountains, the flavor of coffee is much better than that of Brazilian plains, and Colombian coffee tastes better than Brazil's.

The third world coffee producer introduced in Qianjie is Asia. And there are many choices of Asian coffee beans. Among them, Mantenin coffee beans from Indonesia are very good. If they have a low sour taste and rich mellow thickness, then Indonesian coffee beans are very suitable for you. Among them, there are many Indonesian mantenin coffees on the front street, such as Lin Dong manning, sun manning, old manning, tiger manning and gold manning and so on. Among them, Golden Mantenin Coffee has the best flavor, low acid, very smooth taste, and obvious sweetness. Indonesia's unique herbal flavor is lighter, if you like rich aroma, you can choose Tiger Mantenin; if you like mellow thickness, high sweetness can choose aged Mantenin, and Lindong Mantenin is a very classic Mantenin flavor, famous for its rich herbaceous flavor. The reason why Mantenin flavor is so characteristic, the treatment method of using Indonesian raw beans is generally wet planing, which makes coffee beans have a wet planing flavor. We generally think that wet planing has the taste of soil, tobacco and chocolate. Sour taste is called "low acid", mellow and very dull.

Among them, the domestic Yunnan coffee is also very famous, especially Baoshan in Yunnan, the dry and hot valley climate is very suitable for growing coffee. Because Yunnan is located between 15 degrees north latitude and the Tropic of Cancer, most of the high altitude areas, where perennial high temperature, large temperature difference between day and night, suitable rainfall, sufficient light, mineral-rich red volcanic ash soil, these unique natural conditions form the particularity of Yunnan small-grain coffee taste, so the coffee produced here is of good quality, mellow flavor, strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly fruity. Qianjie Coffee also has its own planting base in Baoshan, Yunnan Province, and it is still in the stage of continuous exploration, but Qianjie believes that as long as it persists, there will be results.

The above is a simple summary of the types of coffee in Qianjie. You can start from the three major coffee producing areas according to your favorite coffee flavor, and you will form your own coffee flavor through constant attempts.
