Qianjie Coffee introduces the so-called TOH, which is an acronym for THE TASTE OF HARVEST. The annual African coffee bean competition of the African Coffee Association (which includes seven member states of Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia and Congo) is graded by domestic and foreign judges according to the standards of the American Fine Coffee Association (SCAA), and then bypasses the middleman's online auction.

In the preliminary stage, batches with cup test scores less than 80 points will be eliminated, from which the highest quality raw beans from each region will be gradually selected to enter the national competition, and then the judges at home and abroad will use SCA-based standards to test and score the cups. The one with the highest score will be the annual national champion. After the competition, the raw bean auction company will auction these coffees online.
