Front Street-Cosmopolitan Canet musician series Chopin introduction

Costa rica, which is located in Central America, is at the same time controlled by Pacific and Atlantic currents and seas. Most of the highland volcanoes in Colombia are 2000 meters above sea level. Coffee is planted here to grow slowly in the fertile volcanic soil and high-altitude cold environment, gather more aromatic compounds, and give birth to coffee beans with complete and rich flavor.

The Costa Rican season can be divided into two seasons each year, the dry season is from December to April, the coffee harvest is from December to April, and the rainy season is from May to November. With the establishment of microprocessing systems in Colombia in recent years, the water consumption has been improved by only 5% of the total water consumption, and there is no need for large sinks and exposed sites, so the investment required is much smaller. Colombia's low acidity, high quality, and sweet-smelling "processed coffee" has become a popular goal in the coffee industry in recent years.

The history of Costa rica coffee can be traced back to more than 200 years ago, first planted in the slopes of the Poas and Barva volcanoes, which is what I now call the Central Valley. At present, there are eight main production regions in Costa Rica: West Valley in the western valley, Central Valley in the central valley, Tarrazu in Tarazu, Tres Rios in Sanhe, Orosi in Kuangxi, Brunca in Buchanca, Turrialba in Duli Atreba, and Guanacaste in Guaracast.

And Tarrazu is one of the main boutique coffee producers here. The Tarazhu region also has a long history of producing coffee, which has been recognized and recognized by the British royal family, even in the Pope's speech.

Canet Carnett filter

The Canet Valley is located in the highest altitude region of the Tarazhu region and is the densest fruit planting region in Costa Rica. Carnett is mainly planted passion fruit, coffee is only a small number of plants, so the amount is relatively rare, there is only one specific region to grow coffee, and take special care.

All coffee peaches are picked by hand, and only ripe peaches are harvested. After harvesting, only ripe peaches are picked out to guarantee the quality before processing.

Treatment of raisin honey

The treatment of raisin honey is actually a kind of heavy fermentation honey treatment. When coffee and peaches are harvested, the coffee fruit is poured into a big water trough, and the ripe fruit will sink to the bottom of the water. Underdeveloped or overripe fruit will surface, these floating beans need to be removed, the dried coffee fruit is placed on an elevated bed to dry like raisins, then the pulp and peel is removed, and the fruit is preserved before drying. The flavor will be more fermented, and the flavor will be better preserved than other honey treatments. keep turning these coffee peaches during the drying process to make them dry evenly, but to master the rate of turning, slow drying is necessary to ensure that the coffee is fermented, but not so slow that the degree of fermentation occurs.

Variety

Yellow Catuai; Catuai Amarillo is a hybrid of Mundo Novo and Kaddura. It was first cultivated by the Brazilian Institute of Agricultural Research (Instituto Agronomico de Campinas) in 1949. Like Red Catuai,Catuai Rojo, Kukaduai has extremely high disease resistance and is co-planted at high elevations and in its multi-arid region. Several kinds of Catuai also have a very dry sour taste. When raw beans are observed, the beans show a bluish color, with a mild aroma of tea and a hint of leavening.

The Costa Rican Canet family series includes Mozart, endorphin and Baja coffee. Just this year, a new coffee bean named Chopin was added to the Costa Rican sound family series, which is different from other flavors. This Chopin bean has a bright rose fragrance and outstanding sweetness.
