Comparison between coffee from Brazilian coffee producing areas and coffee from different regions

< 1 > coffee in Taiwan

Taiwan, with its mild climate and abundant rainfall on the Tropic of Cancer, coupled with many high mountains, is already a very suitable place for coffee growth. In 1884, the British were introduced to trial planting in the three Gorges in Taipei. during the Japanese occupation era, the Japanese saw that Taiwan's climate and soil were suitable for coffee, so they introduced "Arabica" from abroad and successfully planted it in the north, with a large amount of investment in Zhiben and Mizuho. The largest output of coffee in Taiwan is located in the mountains near Chiayi and Yunlin. Because the mountain area is at a high altitude and the temperature difference between day and night is more than 10 degrees, the quality of coffee beans is also the best. The fruit is full, the pulp is thick, and the taste is sweet and mellow. Sweet, not astringent, not bitter, not sour, showing the delicacy of coffee.

< 2 > Kenya

Kenyan coffee is that it has a unique, obvious sweet and sour fruit, many people are afraid to drink sour coffee, sour taste is the common feeling of Kenyan coffee. Because most of Kenyan coffee comes from small coffee farmers and grows in different environments, it encounters different climate and rainfall every year, so it has obvious fruit acidity, bringing a variety of distinct and unique flavors, and its sour taste is like fruit.

< 3 > Indonesian coffee

The main producing areas are Java, Sulawesi and Sumatra, of which "Manning" produced in Sumatra is the most famous. Bitter and full-bodied taste is also sweet, rich and mellow, lubricated taste, the unique flavor is still loved by many people.

Fourth, experience and feelings

When drinking coffee, most people usually pay less attention to its origin, which affects the taste of coffee. It is usually easier for us to think of the process of coffee processing, but in fact, her origin has a great impact on the growth and taste of coffee. Some places are affected by the climate, such as India is affected by the monsoon, the local coffee is relatively sour, many people will be very confused when they hear the sour coffee. Generally speaking, the coffee we buy seldom tastes sour, and the coffee sold in the store is mixed with a lot of spices or sugar. Even if it has a sour taste, it is not easy to taste its original taste. If you go to a shop that specializes in selling coffee and taste the original coffee, not all the coffee is bitter, some without sugar will naturally give off a sweet taste. Many people think that coffee is delicious only if it is made in foreign countries. In fact, Taiwan also produces coffee, which is not astringent in taste, sweet and mellow in taste, sweet, bitter, and sour, showing the delicacy of coffee. Taiwan's climate is warm, humid and hot, with sufficient rainfall and alpine terrain, which is originally a suitable environment for growing coffee. The environment is the main factor affecting coffee, but the acquired manual treatment is also an important step, such as the so-called washing method. So that you can adjust the discomfort of the original taste. What admires me most is that Brazil, the coffee producing region of Brazil, overcame the low-lying growth environment and developed a method of cultivating coffee, although the taste of Brazilian coffee is not top, it is a good base bean in mixed coffee products.

It sounds easy to introduce information about coffee. Oops! isn't coffee what we usually drink? later, after collecting information, we found that coffee also had so much knowledge. To express the taste of coffee in words, it is still difficult for people to understand. If you have the opportunity, you can taste all kinds of coffee and compare different flavors. ─ 20211Chen Yiting

When it comes to Brazil, people think of nothing more than football, samba, and carnivals, both of which show the characteristics of Brazilian national enthusiasm, but coffee culture is also a major feature of Brazil.

Although the coffee beans produced in the coffee producing areas of Brazil are mild in taste, have no special taste, and are not very good in sales on the market, they are an indispensable material in the blending of the mellow coffee we drink, which is why Brazil will become the largest exporter of coffee. Most of the famous coffee on the market are mixed coffee, among which the more famous ones are latte, Irish coffee, Blue Mountain coffee and so on. It is worth mentioning that what we generally call the name of coffee (for example: Santos Coffee) is often the name of the port rather than the place of origin, which is quite different from the general impression.

For a long time, it is my habit to have a cup of coffee every morning. in fact, I do not have a very special study of coffee itself. therefore, when I was collecting information, I was surprised that coffee was also a broad and profound knowledge. regardless of soil, climate, topography and other factors affecting the quality of coffee beans, in addition, the processing methods of coffee beans after harvest also affect the taste and flavor of coffee.

It is generally believed that drinking coffee will be refreshing, but some people say that in addition to the factors affected by caffeine, the psychological factors are actually quite big. In spite of this, because I am used to staying up late, I always drink a cup of pure coffee in the morning to cheer me up (usually a latte), but I have also heard that according to medical reports, if you drink too much coffee "more than two cups a day on average", it is easy to cause osteoporosis in old age, so it is better to drink moderately just in case.
