The bean I would like to introduce today is actually very interesting. It drifts away from the mainstream varieties sought after by the domestic industry and lacks the spotlight effect, but at present, in the international coffee industry, it is one of the rising stars from Southeast Asia.

The origin of this bean is in West Java, Indonesia, which is one of the main coffee producing areas in Asia. The most famous varieties of coffee in this country are all kinds of Mantenin. This has also caused people to have a preconceived concept of Indonesian coffee in the subjective impression, thinking that Indonesian coffee should be Manning's style, and at most it is only to make some improvements and improvements on the basis of Mantenin. It wasn't until I drank this bean that I really realized that I couldn't take it for granted.

● wind smell

FLAVOR

Dried incense

Strong aromas of flowers, dried fruit and red wine

Brewing

When brewing, it quickly brings out the attractive aroma of preserved fruit. After the entrance, it feels the complex fragrance of flowers, the rhyme is fast and strong, the taste spectrum is partial to the feeling of mango and Borromi, and the sweet taste of fructose is obvious. It is estimated that this is the origin of the bean named Aromanis.

Sour taste

The sour taste is gentle and not bright, keeping it elegant under a variety of complex fruit flavors.

BODY

In view of the obvious flavor of preserved fruit, the whole tends to be mellow and strong in texture, but not too thick.

● cup mapping

The main feature of this bean is its complex sweetness and fruity aroma, which is more obvious than the African Yega Chuefei, which is also famous for its floral aroma. Its taste spectrum is inclined to the tropical fruits with heavy flavors such as mango and polo honey, which are complex and calm, while the unique honey treatment techniques bring a faint flavor of red wine. This bean is a typical example of sweetness, even in the global coffee pedigree.

This flavor of beans is very rare in Indonesian coffee varieties, completely jumping away from the influence of Indonesian coffee for many years, the cup test has been maintained at a very high score, no less than some varieties of 90PLUS, can be called the rookie of Asian coffee!

● handling

TREAT

This bean is picked manually to ensure the stability of the fruit. After picking, the exocarp is peeled off and the flesh is preserved for sun treatment, which is what we call the sun + honey treatment. After about a month of sun drying, wash and other treatment, and then let the beans stored for about half a month before packaging.

Sun + honey treatment, the only purpose of this complex and high-risk process is to create a more complex and fuller taste spectrum. Reflect the wonderful feeling brought by the complex pedigree of this bean.

● production area

ORIGIN

Origin: Sunda Hejo, West Java, Indonesia

Altitude: 1400-1600m

Soil quality: mainly volcanic black soil

The plantations are basically above 1400 meters above sea level, supplemented by typical local volcanic soil, creating a unique flavor.

● variety

VARIETY

The breed of this inexplicably amazing bean belongs to S795. S795 is called Jember in Indonesia. Jember Coffee Research Center, a coffee research center in East Java, introduced local varieties from India and planted them with Javanese farmers, who directly called the S795 Jember.

S795 bean body color is blue and green, its original tree species natural variation comes from S288, while S288 is an excellent hybrid variety cultivated in India in 1946. S288 was named S26 after being mixed with Typica and S288 (the first generation), because the first generation of S288 was crossed between Arabica and Liberian Liberica and always had the fishy smell of Liberia. Indian botanists then used the first generation of S288 and Typica hybrid Kent and the second generation of S288 to become the present S795. The current S795 variety is of Liberian blood, but its flavor is more elegant after carefully cultivated by Indian botanists. at the same time, due to inheriting the characteristics of strong disease resistance and high yield, the Indonesian and Indian governments have been vigorously promoting the cultivation of this variety in recent years.

From the complex life experience of S795, we can see that it is an artificially selected hybrid variety with Typica and liberica lineages in its blood, and years of careful breeding have created its unique flavor.
