The coffee to be introduced this time is "Bolivian Shengxiang Manor Honey treatment".

According to the European news agency website, "due to the lack of materials in Bolivia, there is no special de-sticking machine similar to Costa Rica, therefore, this batch is completely manual treatment of the sticky layer outside the sheepskin, but because of the high altitude, the appearance of the color is not as deep as the Costa Rican honey treatment method, and the washing batches of Shengxiang Manor in the same period still maintain the same level, but the honey treatment, after the cup test." It was found that it had a completely different flavor, which we had never tested when we tested the Bolivian sample in the cup. The sweet and sour taste of hazelnut is very special and should be highly recommended. "

Although I had not heard of any famous Bolivian coffee beans after drinking a good Costa Rica honey treatment not long ago, I bought this bean driven by curiosity. Trading with Osher is the same-fast and straightforward! It was received the next day after the order.

The quality of the beans is quite good and uniform, but the hardness is not very high (the hand grinder has the most feeling, and the measuring hands that grind two cups will not be sour). Just finished baking, in fact, a little skeptical, the smell of coffee in the air unexpectedly with a touch of sweetness! Even though it's the same! Near the end of the explosion, the bean was dropped, but it no longer tasted sour and was replaced by a faint sweetness and slight bitterness. On the whole, it is a very palatable bean, and the baking degree of medium and shallow culture is quite suitable for people who are just starting to drink coffee.

Shengxiang Nongyuan is also the winning bean in the domestic competition, but it is a pity that the international judging stage of CoE was a little poor and failed to advance to the final finals, but the flavor is still quite excellent. This kind of CoE domestic winning beans are often collected and purchased by bean merchants. For example, this Shengxiangnong Garden makes many judges who have not been bought regret it.

High-quality estates in Bolivia are generally very high above sea level, but they still grow traditional Typica species. Because of the high altitude and low temperature, the high-altitude Typica here is not as large as other countries or planted at lower elevations here, but the Typica here has more diverse and rich aroma and flavor. If you drink the high-altitude Bolivian Typica, I believe you can compare the difference in low altitude. In particular, due to the convenience of transportation and procurement, many Bolivian beans are actually purchased from the nearest low-altitude producing areas, although the particles are larger, but the flavor obviously does not represent the essence of the country.
