Qianjie-introduction to Brazilian coffee

Today, Brazil grows about 1/3 of the world's coffee trees, with an annual output of nearly 60 million bags (60 kilograms each). Production reached its peak in the 1920s, producing 80% of the world's coffee beans.

But no one would have thought of such a coffee kingdom that has been the leader of global coffee production for more than 150 years. If you go back 150 years, there is not a single coffee tree in this part of Brazil, not even in historical records!

Brazil is known as the kingdom of coffee. It is the largest coffee producer and exporter in the world. Coffee production accounts for more than 30% of the world's coffee production. 1 / 6 of the world's coffee is produced here. Brazil is also the second largest coffee consumer in the world after the United States. About 300000 farmers here are engaged in the coffee industry. It not only carries the important task of Brazil's economic development, but also affects the development of coffee in the world. You know, the vast majority of instant coffee is made from Brazilian coffee.

Although Brazil produces 30% to 35% of the world's coffee annually, ranking first in the world, it is a pity that none of the Brazilian coffee beans can be called the top coffee. There are coffee trees all over the mountains, distributed in the southern part of Brazil. Brazil's terrain is too flat and monotonous for coffee cultivation and lacks a microclimate that gives coffee rich flavor factors, making it more suitable for growing shade-free Kaddura, New World and Kaduai.

Before 1990, almost all of Brazil adopted the method of solarization. But times have changed. With the improvement of Brazil's national strength, the progress of science and technology has to meet the needs of the market at the same time. In fact, all kinds of treatment methods (washing, solarization, semi-washing, anaerobic fermentation, etc.) can be seen in Brazil today. Among them, Brazil's original semi-washing treatment is the most famous.

The taste of Brazilian coffee

Brazilian coffee is usually characterized by low acidity and high alcohol thickness, with aromas of chocolate, nuts and dark fruits. In recent years, beans from some boutique producing areas can also taste a series of bright and pleasant fruit flavors, such as sugar cane, grapefruit, melon, peach, citrus and so on.
