Will there be any difference in flavor when the same coffee variety is grown in different regions? Local style versus coffee

I believe that many enthusiasts will encounter such a situation. I buy a bag of beans with citrus and peach flavor, but I can't taste them, so I suspect it's the beans, the cooking, or the senses.

The flavor of coffee bothers many students. How can I not drink so many flavors on the flavor table? ~ after all, not everyone has professional feelings, or I drink not peach flavor, but plum flavor. The reason for this difference is the different regions of cultural life and diet, different descriptions of the same cup of coffee, so coffee taste, the most important thing is communication. Tell me how you feel about this bean, different culture, different experience, different description must be different, but this kind of communication can bring a lot of fun, right?

The aroma of coffee is felt by our sense of smell, and the aroma is definitely thousands of times more complex than the taste. Usually we say that coffee has the taste of apple is actually felt by the nose. There are many descriptions of fruits in the flavor wheel: strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, jasmine, grapefruit, lime, cherry, grape, peach, black tea.

We can smell a smell, taste a taste, but maybe we can't describe it very accurately. The flavor wheel can classify all the taste systems perceived by human beings, corresponding to the smell system is the smell wheel, with the practice of the two, we can clearly sense the slightest difference among all the odors.

When it comes to aroma and taste, this can be said to be the most similar place between coffee and wine. Like wine, coffee has a unique aroma due to the influence of different soils and roasting processes. When it comes to the roasting process, the quality of coffee is equivalent to that of wine brewed in the cellar, and the roasting temperature will affect the quality of the coffee, just as the cellar will affect the final taste of the wine. Coffee tasting is the same as tasting red wine, distinguishing between local customs and varieties, and coffee bean varieties show different flavors in different countries and regions.

Take species as an example, there are many kinds of coffee in every corner of the world. Coffee beans grown in different soils have different aroma and taste. Like grapes, different soil is suitable for different coffee trees, and elements such as soil, sunlight and other climate can affect the aroma, taste and quality of coffee.

Before the entrance, use your nose to appreciate the aroma of the coffee. Here you can not hesitate to borrow wine tasting words, first smell your coffee to see if it has aroma, such as flower, fruit or wine, whether there is abnormal rotten soil, mildew, volatile sour or spicy taste, these are the taste produced by poor quality or improper preservation of coffee beans. If it is a healthy coffee, then in the aroma can give you a lot of enjoyment. You can not hesitate to use the wine tasting system to evaluate a coffee, looking for fruity, floral, botanical, roasted and spicy aromas. As the heat of coffee helps spread the aroma, you can easily capture the rich and complex aroma of coffee.
