Brazil is the largest country in South America, and its coffee production ranks first in the world, accounting for about 1/3 of the world's total output, but coffee beans produced in Brazil will not be very expensive. How much is a cup of Brazilian coffee? Next, this article, Qianjie Coffee, will explain them one by one.

Why is the coffee production in Brazil high?

According to Qianjie Coffee, Brazil is located in Latin America in the Western Hemisphere, in the eastern part of South America and on the west coast of the Atlantic Ocean, bordering all countries on the South American continent except Ecuador and Chile; and most of its territory lies between the equator and the Tropic of Cancer, making it the most tropical country in the world. The territory has a tropical rain forest climate and a tropical prairie climate. The superior tropical natural conditions are very suitable for the growth and production of tropical cash crop coffee.

Brazil also makes full use of the tropical geographical environment and attaches importance to the production and sale of coffee, so that the output, export volume and per capita consumption of coffee have been ranked first in the world for many years, and have been praised as the "coffee kingdom" in the world.

Then why is Brazilian coffee not expensive?

As mentioned above, Brazil is the largest coffee producer in the world, but this does not mean that it is suitable for growing coffee all over the country. according to Qianjie coffee, its main production is concentrated 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 harvested at the same time, so it is not fine coffee.

Thus it can be seen that Brazilian coffee is generally grown in flat areas. In order to adapt measures to local conditions, Brazilian landlords have developed improved Arabica coffee trees that do not require highland or shade decades ago, which can be planted on plains or grasslands and are directly exposed to the sun, which is different from the traditional higher altitude shade cultivation.

According to Qianjie Coffee, it is known that most of the Brazilian coffee estates are only a few hundred meters above sea level, even on flat land. This kind of exposure planting method makes the coffee fruit grow faster, but the flavor development is not complete. Moreover, the density of beans, that is, the so-called hardness is not as good as plateau beans, the acidity of the fruit is obviously low, and the flavor is monotonous, so it is rarely used to make high-quality individual coffee beans. It is used to make espresso with beans, and the price is naturally not high.

How much is a cup of Brazilian coffee?

If you want to drink good Brazilian coffee, you must choose hand-brewed coffee beans to drink the best flavor of Brazilian coffee beans. Here, it is necessary to talk about Brazilian Queen's Manor coffee beans, which have a certain position in the boutique coffee market.

Coffee is grown between shrubs, grasslands and other vegetation. There are many farming families in this area, some of which operate in the traditional way of large farms, while others operate in a small-scale and modern way. Modern science and technology mixed with mountain coffee cultivation culture has created the highest quality raw coffee beans.

The Queen's Manor is located in the north of the Mochiana region of Sao Paulo, Brazil. It is well-known in Brazil and is owned by the Carvalho Dias family.
