What grade does Rosa coffee beans belong to? the difference between green and red marks in Panamanian jadeite manor

What is the grade of Rosa coffee beans? Qianjie tells you that according to the current situation, Rose Summer Coffee is the most famous, upscale and expensive coffee bean after Blue Mountain Coffee! I didn't see its beans, but I heard its name. You can see how famous Rosa coffee beans are. If you want to know the story of Rose Summer Coffee, you can't get around the Emerald Manor. This is the story of Bole and Chollima.

Through later tracing, we know that rose summer coffee beans were originally grown in the Cafa forest region of western Ethiopia, and then moved to Panama and became one of the most popular coffee beans in the world. Qianjie has shared with you in other articles: coffee belongs to crops, and the flavor of coffee is closely related to its growing environment. Rose summer varieties of coffee beans are very picky about the growing environment, and only in areas with high altitude, cloudy shade or a large number of shade trees and fertile soil can they harvest rich and charming flower aroma and delicate and elegant sour coffee beans. Qianjie found that there is a very strange phenomenon of Rosa coffee, that is, the steeper the environment, the better the flavor of the coffee.

The climate of Panama is very suitable for growing coffee. Panamanian rosy summer coffee beans are famous all over the world, and coffee cultivation in Panama revolves around the Chiriki volcano area. One of the most beautiful is the Pokuit producing area, where unique volcanic fertile soil, plenty of water, regular rainfall, dense vegetation and cloud cover nourish coffee trees and produce high-quality coffee beans with rich flavor. Many different microclimates also contribute to the production of coffee beans with multiple flavors, and the Jade Manor is also located in this producing area. On the other hand, the Walken producing area, which is adjacent to the Bokui special area, has fewer producing areas that have grown high-quality rose summer coffee in recent years.

Since Rosa Coffee became famous, coffee farms all over the world have grown Rosa Coffee, including Yunnan. Many famous estates in Panama also grow rosy summer coffee, such as Deborah Manor, Erida Manor and so on, which are obviously overshadowed by the fame of the Emerald Manor. The Rose Summer Coffee Front Street of these Rose Summer Manors are all available, and the flavor is very charming. Well, today in Qianjie, I would like to introduce to you the famous manor of Rosa Coffee-Jade Manor.

Panamanian Jade Manor

The rose summer coffee variety was discovered in the rose summer forest of Ethiopia in 1931. Rosa was then sent to the Coffee Institute in Kenya, introduced to Uganda and Tanzania in 1936, Costa Rica in 1953 and Panama in 1970. However, according to Qianjie, Rosa coffee has not been paid attention to during this period, because the yield of Rosa coffee is very low, it is difficult to grow, and the economic benefit is low, so no one pays attention to it, and even regards it as a windbreak tree for other crops.

Later, the owner of the Panamanian Emerald Manor and his son discovered that the rose summer coffee beans have a unique flavor, which is very different from the coffee flavor grown in Panama. In this way, the rose summer coffee varieties were excavated separately in 2003, and in 2004, the rose summer coffee beans were taken to participate in the BOP coffee competition to win the championship. As a result, Rosa coffee became famous and appeared in the field of vision of coffee fans everywhere. At the same time, there is also a trend of growing rosy summer coffee in Panama.

After years of experiments, the Emerald Manor has found that only the roses collected by coffee trees growing above 1400 meters above sea level can show the special flavor of roses. As a result, landowners devote most of their energy to the development of infrastructure to support excellent strict batch separation and fine processing, grading Rosa according to plot planting, dominated by planting height and supplemented by actual cup test results. In the past, the Rosa series of jadeite manor products were divided into red standard, green standard and blue standard, in which the red bid included competitive bidding and non-competitive bidding batches. In 2022, Feicui Manor changed its Rose Summer Coffee products to improve its Rose Summer position. The revised bidding is for jadeite, red and green.

Panamanian Emerald Manor bids for Rosa Coffee beans

Esmeralda Auction is an independent brand of Jade Manor from the red mark in 2022, and this batch can only be obtained by auction. As early as 2021, the conversation between Qianjie and Rachel, the owner of the manor, learned that the current jadeite red bid Esmeralda Special includes both competitive and non-competitive lots, which would be very confusing to manage, and said that the auction lots would be independent in the future. Sure enough, Esmeralda Auction was launched in 2022, and on August 17, 2022 (Beijing time), the ES-W-3-1 lot sold for $2755 / kg, the highest price in the history of the Jadeite Manor.

Panamanian Emerald Manor Red Standard Rosa Coffee beans

At present, Emerald Red Standard is one of the more expensive coffee beans in Qianjie coffee, and some people will ask whether the expensive one is the best to drink. Everyone's taste is different, it's hard to say, but what Qianjie tells you is: Emerald Red Standard is definitely a very good coffee! The red standard batch of Rosa coffee beans, planted at 1600-1800 meters above sea level, scored more than 90 points in the cup test, mainly from the two producing areas of Jaramillo and Canas Verdes. The marked batches are washed or treated in the sun.

Emerald Manor Green label Rose Summer Coffee beans

The emerald green sign Rose Summer is not as expensive as the jadeite red standard, but you will find that the popularity of the green sign in the front street is much better than that of the emerald red sign. Although the green label batch does not participate in the bidding, the quality of coffee beans remains excellent. Green label batches of Rosa coffee beans are planted at an altitude of 1600-1800 meters, which are mainly produced in different lots such as Jaramillo and Canas Verdes. Because the mode of mixing different plots is adopted, sometimes the flavor similarity between green mark and red mark is very high. Although the grade of green standard rose summer coffee beans is not as high as that of red standard rose summer coffee beans, it is clean and tends to the flavor and acidity of jasmine tea as a whole, while the green standard rose summer in the sun is sweet, sour and sweet, reminiscent of passion fruit and scented tea.

Guests often ask, "what's the difference between a red sign and a green one?" Qianjie Coffee gives you an easy-to-understand reference: red-label Rosa coffee beans are small plots that can be traced back to the growth of coffee beans, while Green-label Rosa can not be traced back to small plots. The green label Rosa coffee beans of the Jade Manor adopts the mixed mode, so it is not specified in detail on the land. It is precisely because of this that Qianjie Coffee has sometimes found that the flavors of green and red marks are extremely similar. Qianjie Coffee believes that it is not necessary to drink the bidding grade. One is that the price is indeed high; the other is that if you are just curious to try, then the front street coffee is not a competitive batch of Panamanian jade estate red label Rosa coffee beans is also a good choice.

Suggestion on brewing coffee in Qianjie

For coffee brewing, Qianjie recommends using freshly roasted coffee beans for brewing, so that you can maximize the rich flavor of coffee. The coffee beans shipped in Qianjie are all roasted within 5 days, because Qianjie is well aware that the freshness of coffee beans has a great impact on the flavor. The purpose of Qianjie roasting is "freshly roasted coffee", so that every guest who places an order is the freshest coffee when he receives it. The bean cultivation period of coffee is about 4-7 days, so when the guest gets it, it is the time when the flavor is the best.

Of course, there are some customers who need help grinding powder in front of the street, which doesn't matter, but Qianjie has to warn: if the coffee beans are ground ahead of time, there is no need to raise the beans, because in the process of transportation, the pressure caused by carbon dioxide in the package can also make the coffee flavor mellow, so when you receive the coffee powder, you can immediately make a cup of coffee drink. But the coffee powder needs to be brewed in time, because the coffee powder oxidizes more quickly after contact with the air, that is to say, the flavor of the coffee will dissipate more quickly, and the flavor of the coffee is not so good. Therefore, Qianjie suggests buying whole beans, grinding and flushing now, so that we can better taste the flavor of coffee.

Parameters of Qianjie Rose Summer Coffee:

Qianjie considered that this rose summer coffee beans are lightly roasted, and the dissolution rate of light roasted beans is lower than that of deep roasted beans, so in order to ensure that the flavor of rose summer can be fully extracted, higher water temperature is used for brewing. At the same time, a finer degree of grinding is also selected.

Because the quality of rose bean is relatively hard, it is easy to sink to the bottom and clog the sewer hole, so the Chinese standard 20 sieve mesh with a pass rate of 80% (about the size of fine sugar) will be used in grinding. Powder Qianjie still choose 15g, with Hario V60 small filter cup, the proportion of brewing powder is suggested to be adjusted to 1:15, on the one hand, use one more part of water to maintain the extraction rate of coffee, on the other hand, reduce the coffee concentration to 1.15%, in this concentration to feel the best flavor of coffee, water temperature, maintain the use of 91 degrees Celsius.

The use of segmented extraction, with twice the amount of coffee powder water for steaming, that is, 30 grams of water for 30 seconds, and the reason for the need for steaming process is to make coffee powder can discharge the internal carbon dioxide gas, so that the latter stage of the extraction is better stable. When the small water is injected around the circle to 125 grams, continue to inject water to 225 grams, and then remove the filter cup after the dripping of the filter cup. The time is calculated from the beginning of the water injection, and the extraction time is 2 times 39 grams. Next, pick up the whole cup of coffee and shake it well, then pour it into the cup to taste.
