When we talked about coffee a few years ago, the first things we mentioned were the Blue Mountains of Jamaica and Kona, Hawaii. At the beginning of the development of boutique coffee culture, these two kinds of coffee with rich flavor and mellow taste were once popular with gluttons, so Blue Mountain and Kona Coffee were called "one king and one queen".

As the coffee world has entered the era of boutique coffee culture in which a hundred schools of thought contend and a hundred flowers blossom. The rise of Rose Summer has subverted the coffee myth of "one king and one queen", and has formed the trend of latecomers. Rosa coffee has become a spokesman for high price and high quality in today's coffee market.

Taste description of Rosa Coffee

Compared with the mellow and solid coffee flavor of Blue Mountain and Kona, Rose Summer Coffee subverts people's understanding of the taste of coffee with its delicate acidity and fresh flower smell. At the same time, the younger generation of consumers are in pursuit of refreshing taste, Rosa coffee has naturally become a popular variety.

Is Rosa coffee really good?

After years of cup test and comparison of Qianjie coffee, it is found that, in fact, the flavor of rosy summer in different producing areas and seasons will be significantly different, and even different plots in the same producing area will show different tastes.

The most familiar rosy summer coffee in Panama has a very charming tonality, similar to rose and jasmine, and usually bright and upward in acidity, with citrus notes. The palate is clean and clear with distinct layers. After proper treatment and baking, it can show a supple, balanced and unique delicate taste.

On the other hand, the rose summer coffee in Ethiopia is relatively less delicate, but also rich. There are similar red berries, nuts and spices that are sweet and tea-like. After proper treatment and baking, it can show a balanced and integrated taste.

Are Panamanian rose summer and Ethiopian rose summer the same variety?

In the early 1930s, rose varieties were collected in an Ethiopian area called Gesha. At that time, there was not only one variety collected, but a mixture of varieties sold in the region's primeval forests and markets, which were sent to Kenya for research and cultivation.

After that, Tanzania, Costa Rica and Panama have introduced Rosa coffee for further cultivation and research. In order to adapt to the local climate of different regions, these plants gradually formed different genes, and the flavor will be different.

On the other hand, the Rose Summer Coffee in Panama has a very attractive and exquisite coffee flavor because of its high altitude and climate. It was discovered by the owner of the Panamanian Jade Manor in 2003 and sent to participate in the Best Panama (bop) Competition in 2004. Its unique flavor shocked all the judges at that time, and finally broke the BOP history record with an average cup score of 94.6, and won the championship. It has become the champion bean seed all over the world overnight.

Over the past decade, people have begun to try to bring Rosa coffee back to Ethiopia and grow it in the 475-hectare Rosa Village, 12 miles from the Rosa Forest. The plantation owner is involved in the search for wild bean seeds in the forest. Now they are growing several rose beans they have brought back from the forest, hoping to produce higher-quality coffee.

Although the variety planted in Ruoxia Village is also known as Rosa, it is essentially a native variety in Ethiopia. Even though the plant shape, bean shape, cup test performance and so on are closest to the Panamanian rose summer varieties, but since the Panamanian rose summer has not been "tamed" by human beings (but the Panamanian rose summer has been "tamed" by humans and nature for many years), so Ethiopia's rose summer and Central and South America rose summer are two different varieties.

How does Rosa coffee taste good?

At present, Qianjie Coffee sells three types of Essex Rose Summer Coffee beans from Rosa Village Gold Standard, Red Standard and Chaka, as well as three Panamanian Rose Summer Coffee beans from Emerald Manor Red Mark, Green Mark and Pocket producing area. In order to allow everyone to taste the most complete flavor of coffee beans, coffee beans shipped from Qianjie Coffee are sent out within 5 days after baking!

Rose summer coffee beans from any region are rich in acidity, because Qianjie coffee is roasted in medium to light, retaining bright acidity and charming floral and fruit aromas.

The texture of medium-shallow roasted coffee beans is hard, and it is easy to sink to the bottom and plug the water hole when cooking. Therefore, Qianjie Coffee recommends using a Chinese standard No. 20 sieve with a pass rate of 78% (about the size of fine granulated sugar) on the grinding fineness of coffee beans, and the brewing water temperature is recommended to use 90-91 degrees Celsius.

Qianjie Coffee is produced in daily stores, using 15g coffee powder, paired with Hario V60 small filter cup, and then brewed with 1:16 powder-water ratio. When everything is ready, use three-stage boiling technique: start timing, the first injection to 30g water, carry out 30s steaming; then start the second small amount of water to 125g, wait for the powder bed water to go down to half and then inject water, and then continue to inject small water around 225g, after all the dripping filtration is completed, the total extraction time is about 2 minutes 10 seconds-2 minutes 20 seconds.
