Although the coffee bean itself will have obvious regional characteristics, but in the roasting process, the roaster may adjust according to his own understanding of the taste of coffee, and finally get the taste of the same coffee can show a variety of features. Perhaps, in this way, you can understand why the taste of the same coffee beans bought in different places is so different.
