Qianjie-introduction to Cuban Crystal Mountain Coffee

Most parts of Cuba have a tropical rain forest climate, only the southwest coastal leeward slope for the savanna climate, with an average annual temperature of 25 ℃, except for a few areas, the annual precipitation is more than 1000 mm, which is very similar to the geographical location and climatic conditions of the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, so the coffee here and Blue Mountain Coffee have the same taste of island coffee: low acidity, good alcohol thickness and balance. Like Blue Mountain Coffee, it's expensive!

Cuba's best coffee growing area is located in the Central Mountains, because this area in addition to growing coffee, there are quartz, crystal and other precious minerals, so it is also known as Cuban Crystal Mountain Coffee. Crystal Mountain Coffee is all picked by hand, and high-quality export coffee will be treated with water washing to remove defective beans and other impurities to the maximum extent, so "Crystal Mountain Coffee" is almost synonymous with top Cuban coffee.

The Origin of Crystal Mountain Coffee in Cuba

[CubitaCoffee], in Cuba, the cultivation of coffee is regulated by the state. Cuba has fertile land, humid climate and abundant rain, which can be called a natural treasure land for coffee cultivation, and suitable natural conditions provide a favorable natural environment for the growth of coffee trees.

Cuba's best coffee growing area is located in the Central Mountains, because this area in addition to growing coffee, there are quartz, crystal and other precious minerals, so it is also known as Crystal Mountain.

All the coffee is picked by hand, and the high-quality export coffee will be treated with water washing to remove defective beans and other impurities to the maximum extent. "Crystal Mountain Coffee" is almost synonymous with top Cuban coffee: soft and long-lasting acidity, clean taste, meticulous and smooth, excellent balance of acidity and bitterness.

Most of the best quality coffee in China is exported, with exports accounting for about 1/5 of the total output, and the rest is consumed domestically. It is interesting to say that domestic production simply cannot meet domestic consumption. It used to cost US $40 million a year to import low-quality coffee, and even took some extreme measures to meet domestic coffee demand.

Today, the output of coffee in Cuba is still not high, about 7,000 tons a year. Domestic coffee will be sun-dried or mechanically dried, while exported coffee will be washed and treated. Old equipment, muddy roads, and backward planting technology are a great challenge to the development of the Cuban coffee industry.

Knowledge: coffee roasting is a process that produces Mena reaction and caramel reaction inside raw beans, producing more wonderful flavors.

In short: Qianjie is a coffee research hall, happy to share the knowledge about coffee with you, we share unreservedly just to make more friends fall in love with coffee, and there will be three low-discount coffee activities every month. The reason is that Qianjie wants to make more friends drink the best coffee at the lowest price, which has been Qianjie's tenet for 6 years!
