Drinking coffee is like drinking red wine. You can look at the manor and the variety. There are Cabernet Sauvignon (cabernet sauvignon), Merlot (merlot), shiraz/syrah and so on in red wine, while coffee has Arabica and Robsta, and there are different fine varieties such as typica, bourbon, Kaddura, kona and so on. Different varieties will have different flavors due to their different geographical conditions, such as climate, soil, and so on. However, no matter how good the growth conditions or varieties are, the landowners with deep technology must be suitable for planting according to the local environment, as well as good harvesting and post-processing, and then cooperate with the back-end roasters and baristas to present a cup of coffee with full flavor and distinct layers in the hands of expectant consumers.

Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee, thousands of years of mating between different varieties of coffee, resulting in tens of thousands of varieties in Ethiopia today.

The original species is not that technology can know for sure that a certain variety is the ancestor of all the coffee on the market, but that there are too many varieties to be distinguished at all, so let's call it the original species.

In addition to the native species, you can also hear the "Yega Sheffield species" and "Sidamo species". This kind of variety named after the producing area does not make much sense, because even if the variety is distinguished by origin, it still can not reach the true meaning of distinguishing a single variety.

Ethiopia is the producer of the famous Arabica coffee beans, and the people who live there have always maintained the tradition of harvesting wild coffee beans. However, Ethiopian coffee grown in the wild is called "wilderness coffee", which retains the most primitive and natural taste of coffee beans. It is worth mentioning that most of the coffee in Central and South America is imported, but Ethiopia is the real origin of coffee.
