Hainan is the only tropical island in China, one of the few places in China that can produce coffee, and it is also the first place in China to introduce coffee. In Hainan, you can taste the wonderful Hainan coffee and the unique Hainan coffee culture.

The first stop of ●: Xinglong Coffee

In Southeast Asia, there is such a jingle: "Chaozhou vermicelli Fujian noodles, Hainan coffee everyone." It is said that in Southeast Asia, most coffee shops are run by Hainan people. In the 1950s, returned overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia not only brought the tradition of drinking coffee and the skill of making and brewing coffee to Hainan, but also produced the later famous Xinglong coffee.

Xinglong Coffee is known as "the first coffee in China". "strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, smooth and smooth" is the remarkable feature of Xinglong coffee. In 1951, shortly after the birth of the people's Republic of China, returned overseas Chinese from more than 20 countries and regions, including Southeast Asia, came to the prosperity of the Sun River and invested in the vigorous construction of New China, and the prosperous overseas Chinese farm was born. Limited by the production and living conditions at that time, the farm adopted the method of "growing crops in the short term", that is, using the income of short-term crops such as coffee, citronella and rice to support the cultivation of long-term crops such as rubber. Coffee has begun a new process of prosperous cultivation. Into people's daily life, Southeast Asian coffee production methods, brewing technology into people's daily life.

After a long period of research, it has been found that although the large seed of coffee is high-yielding, its quality and taste is poor; although the taste of the small seed is excellent, its growth environment is plateau climate, the elevation of Xinglong is very low, and planting small seed not only has low yield, but also the life span of the tree is not long. Finally, they began to plant medium-grain coffee on a large scale as the most suitable variety for prosperous cultivation, and the prosperous altitude, latitude and climate provided a good guarantee for the settlement of medium-grain coffee.

Xinglong Coffee, scientific name Roberta Coffee, also known as Barostein Coffee, belongs to the evergreen tree of the subgenus Rubiaceae Coffee. It is native to African dried fruit and medium seed species. It is one of the three main original coffee varieties in the world. Coffee trees are mainly distributed in the tropics and subtropics between southern and northern latitudes, and are planted in Yunnan, Taiwan and Hainan in China. Xinglong coffee is a geographical indication product, especially the coffee growing in the defined areas of Nanqiao Town, Changfeng Town, Niuli Town, Sangengluo Town and Liji Town in Xinglong overseas Chinese Farm of Wanning City.

The roasting process of Xinglong coffee originated in Southeast Asia, which is unique and is used to roasting by hand. The roasting process of coffee beans is a luxury for taste buds. Put the sun-dried coffee beans into an iron pan to roast, when the fragrance floats out, add sugar, salt and butter at the right time, stir-fry evenly, and let the flavor of butter slowly seep into the coffee beans. Soon, the beans, sugar, salt and butter will be integrated into a black paste, which also means that a pot of coffee is ready. Wait until air-dried into a block, after patient grinding, it will become coffee powder. The roasting of Xinglong coffee should not only improve the quality of raw materials, but also grasp the time and heat, otherwise, the quality is difficult to guarantee. Coffee bakers have decades of work experience, roasting pot after pot of Xinglong coffee with superhuman vision and sense of smell, even if you are miles away, you can smell it.

After drinking it, Premier Zhou Enlai said: "Xinglong coffee is world-class. I have drunk a lot of foreign coffee, but our own coffee tastes good." In this way, the prime minister drank three drinks in a row, and when he planned to drink the fourth cup, he was dissuaded by his wife Deng Yingchao. After that, the relevant departments also specially sent a section chief from the Shanghai coffee factory to Xinglong to learn the technology of stir-frying coffee. A cup of coffee with strong flavor, an amiable prime minister, wrote a good name for Xinglong Coffee.

Party and state leaders Zhu de, Zhou Enlai, Liu Shaoqi, Deng Xiaoping, Dong Biwu, Peng Zhen and Ye Jianying also came to Xinglong one after another, and gradually Xinglong coffee became an indispensable delicacy for entertaining guests. In addition to the head of the central government, many foreign experts also praised Xinglong Coffee. In early 1959, an expert from the Democratic Republic of Germany visited Xinglong. After tasting Xinglong coffee, he said, "your coffee tastes better than anything we've ever had before. I hope you can plant it in large quantities." I hope that in the near future, we can buy coffee with 'Xinglong brand' printed in Germany. " Unfortunately, to this day, the German expert's good wish has not been realized.

In Xinglong, the first coffee town in China, locals wake up with coffee every morning. More than half a century later, coffee has become an indispensable part of the life of Xinglong people. No matter in the morning, in the evening, or in the afternoon leisure time, in the coffee shop by the Sun River, you can see groups of people, either for relatives and friends, or for bosom friends, order a cup of coffee and coconut cakes, and taste it slowly. Coffee and coconut aroma are permeated, and affection, friendship and love are also passed on to each other in such an environment.

The beautiful Xinglong overseas Chinese Farm is known as a pearl of Oriental Hawaii. It is located on the southeast coastline of Wanning City, Hainan Province, along the Taiyang River, latitude 18.4 °N, longitude 110.1 °E. it is famous at home and abroad for its unique returned overseas Chinese customs Xinglong coffee and hot spring vacation.

There are 70 coffee producing places in the world, mainly between 28 and 38 degrees north latitude, but there is a saying that the best coffee should be produced between 20 degrees north latitude and the Tropic of Cancer.

I don't know whether the prosperity of coffee or the prosperity of coffee contributed to it. At present, the per capita annual coffee consumption in China is only 5 cups, while in Xingxing, the per capita coffee consumption is more than 200 cups. A small town with only more than 30,000 permanent residents is dotted with more than 100 coffee shops.
