Representative:

Indonesia

Coffee cultivation in Sumatra Mantenin began in the 18th century in Aceh province near Lake Tawar to the north. A few days most of the Sumatra coffee area is located in the south of Lin Dong District, Subu District and Takengon grow coffee. Sumatra coffee is not distinguished by the production area because of the small difference between the planting areas, but the picking and processing methods have a greater impact on the flavor of coffee, and the famous "Golden Mantenin" is the excellent product after the Japanese strictly control these procedures.

Mantelin is one of the world's most suitable for deep roasting coffee beans, one of the famous reasons is that it does not lose its own characteristics after deep roasting, mantelin heavy flavor and low acidity, combined with thick taste like traditional Chinese medicine makes it very popular in Asia, in fact, good quality mantelin is also very suitable for light roasting, in this degree of roasting can show good fruit flavor.

[Sumatra Mantenin Indonesia](deep roasting in traditional wet planing)-Roasted toast, nuts, pine, caramel, herbs, mantenin coffee is produced in the Toba Lake region of Subei Province and the Tawa Lake region of Aceh, which is known as the "Two Lakes Double Man".

Gold Mandrine coffee aroma is rich and thick, with a clear quality of acidity, high balance, sometimes with nutty taste, lingering. Java Coffee Premium is excellent in appearance and quality, just like a woman's subtle charm, charming and just right, making people miss it.

Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea is an anomaly in Indonesian coffee. Coffee farms are numerous, large and small, small farms mostly produce washed organic beans, taste strong but no earthy taste, these small farms also produce a small number of sun-dried beans, these sun-dried beans taste more than washed beans and delicate; large manor coffee taste cleaner and more detailed, but some people think it is a little less personality. Basically, Papua New Guinea coffee has a lighter texture than Java beans and is somewhat similar to good Central American beans. Most of the coffee trees in the area come from the tibeka variety of Arabica beans in Jamaica, mixed with the arushi variety of tibeka beans in Tanzania.

[Papua New Guinea PNG Chimaier Manor](washed and moderately roasted)_nuts, sucrose, low acid and solid, Chimaier Manor due to excellent growing environmental conditions and stable quality control process of the treatment plant, the coffee produced has active brightness and retains the flavor uniqueness of Papua New Guinea coffee to a considerable extent.

Have you ever heard of coffee being divided into "male beans" and "female beans"? Male beans are what we call round beans now. They are available in Kenya, Tanzania, Mexico, Papua, Hawaii and other places of origin. Kenya is the representative of fruit acid coffee. What attracts me most is its refined berry characteristics. A cup of Kenya round beans with medium and light baking, with rich fruit tonality, sour grapefruit, complex and varied flavor, rich and layered.

Coffea yunnanensis

Arabica coffee is suitable for growing in the mountains of 800~1800 meters above sea level. If the altitude is too high, it tastes sour, and if it is too low, it tastes bitter. Arabica coffee is mostly planted in dry and hot valleys at an altitude of about 1100 meters, so the acidity is moderate, the aroma is rich and mellow. Many areas of Yunnan Province have unique environments suitable for the growth of Arabica coffee, and the Arabica coffee produced is of excellent quality.

[Yunnan Tibika](washed medium): The oldest indigenous variety of Ethiopia, produced in Ethiopia and southeastern Sudan, all Arabica are derived from Tibika. Elegant flavor, but weak constitution, poor disease resistance, fruit yield less. Jamaica Blue Mountain, Sumatra Mantning, Hawaii Kona and other excellent estate beans belong to Tibika. The top leaf of tibeka is red copper color, called red top coffee, tibeka belongs to arabica. Palate: Floral, sweet melon, black tea.

Overall, high-end coffee beans do not mean that we must pick the most expensive and rare, but some more distinctive, connotation coffee producing areas, will be easier to please, the most important thing is, before giving gifts or self-use, to understand the taste needs and orientation, so targeted in order to show more heart, coffee beans in the world, there is no most expensive, only the most suitable, truly high-end coffee, must be the most suitable taste of that paragraph!
