Qianjie-Ecuadorian Coffee introduction

Coffee acidity is another selection criterion. The acidity is mainly related to the altitude of the producing area. Most of the world's coffee is produced at low elevations, such as Vietnam, Indonesia, Africa, Brazil, with medium to low acidity. But coffee varieties such as loja in Ecuador are rare with an altitude of 1500-2200 meters and very high acidity, so their aroma and taste are naturally outstanding. Ecuador also has the Galapagos Islands (Galapagos) in the middle of the elevation and the coffee-producing area of manabi in the lower altitude. So in Ecuador, an equatorial country smaller than Japan, you can find all kinds of coffee with different acidity and aroma. It can be called the country of origin of "all-round" coffee.

Main producing area 1: Manabi

100-500 meters above sea level, acidity 3-5 (out of 10), average temperature 30 degrees Celsius

Main producing area 2: Galapagos (Galapagos)

300-450 meters above sea level, acidity 5-7 (out of 10), average temperature 25 degrees Celsius, confluence of cold and warm ocean currents, pozzolanic soil, microclimate and other unique geographical conditions

Main production area 3: Loja

Altitude 1500-2200 m, acidity 8-9 (out of 10), average temperature 18-20 degrees Celsius

Ecuador is a high-capacity coffee producer and is one of the few countries in the world that exports all kinds of coffee: small grain washing, natural Arabica and Robusta.

Because of its location, Ecuador produces one of the best cafes in South America and the most popular in Europe. Different ecosystems allow Ecuador to have coffee plantations that allow it to grow across the country and even in the Galapagos Islands. Arabica coffee is produced from March to October, while Robusta is from February to November.

The main varieties grown in Ecuador are: Arabica natural small grain Robsta

Knowledge: northern Ecuador, growing Colombian and Castillo species from Colombia
