Qianjie-Kenya PB beans

As we all know, there are usually two flat beans in a coffee cherry that snuggle up to each other and grow together. But occasionally there is a phenomenon of a bean occupying the whole fruit, and this kind of lonely bean is what we call round beans. About 5-10% of the seeds in the coffee fruit of each coffee tree are round beans. They are usually smaller than flat beans, but they look like round cutes because they bring their own baby fat.

The output of round beans is small, and in the coffee processing process, it usually takes manual work to distinguish and screen these round beans, so they are relatively rare.

In Kenya, for example, parchment coffee with parchment after raw bean processing is sent to a large coffee mill for shelling, which is done before export or delivery. After shelling and screening and grading, there are the grades of AA,AB that we see, in which round beans are specially selected and sold separately, which is called Kenya PB, full name Peaberry, which is what we call round beans. Bright black plum acidity, full of virgin fruit flavor, taste very much like a semi-dry sweet white wine.

At present, there are peaberry beans on the market, and the more famous example is the Kona coffee bean, which is a kind of Kona coffee beans grown in Hawaii. About 5% of the beans are peabry. In addition, about 5% to 10% of the fruits in the Tanshania coffee Tanzania Peaberry also have the peaberry type, and the beans are very small.

In fact, it is not clear whether round beans taste better or not, because different coffee varieties have different tastes of peaberry beans. In addition, the factors that generate peaberry patterns may also be affected by man, so the price orientation of peaberry beans is still a problem.
