Qianjie-hand-made coffee beans recommend Honduras-Shirley introduction

Which one tastes better for a single cup of coffee is actually a difficult problem for a century. Because everyone likes different flavors, Qianjie will ask guests what flavor they like to recommend when they are hesitant. In 2019, there is such a coffee deeply loved by curry fans, that is, Honduras-Shirley.

What makes "Shirley" special is the beans processed by low-temperature fermentation in Shirley buckets, which are used by Sherry wineries in the whisky industry to age. Sherry is a famous fortified wine produced in the sunny Jerez region of southern Spain. Sherry must be made through the Solera system (Solera System) ripening process.

The Solera system essentially refers to the process of mixing and aging different vintages of sherry after being fortified. In the Solera system, all the barrels are stacked according to the vintage, the oldest sherry at the bottom and the youngest sherry at the top. Every year, part of the wine is extracted from the bottom barrel for bottling and sale, and then the corresponding proportion of wine is extracted from the upper barrel to replenish it, and so on ~ this is what makes sherry unique!

In Honduras, the sherry beans are carefully washed and then fermented in whisky oak barrels ripe into sherry for 30-40 days (about 15-20 ℃) before drying in the shade.

Because the unique treatment gives this bean a unique flavor, so today in 2020, Qianjie single coffee or recommend this bean, because this bean is really hot!
