Qianjie-introduction to the growing conditions of Brazilian Coffee

In 1727, Francesco, a Portuguese diplomat, was sent to French Guiana to mediate the territorial dispute. In the process of mediation, he hooked up with the wife of a local official. At parting, the official's wife quietly hid several coffee seeds in the flowers given to him. Later, he planted coffee seeds in Brazil and achieved good results.

It is this important romance story that coffee has taken root and sprouted in Brazil, and Central and South America has begun to introduce and grow coffee because of the widespread cultivation in Brazil. By 1845, Brazil had produced 45% of the world's coffee beans, and for more than 150 years, Brazilian coffee had been the largest coffee producer in the world.

Coffee in Brazil is mainly grown in the plains. Although the plains in Brazil are relatively low above sea level (also 600-900m), the plains are wide, located in the tropics, and the temperature is suitable for coffee growth. So Brazil has adopted the strategy of winning by quantity.

For this reason, Brazilian coffee does not have the hardness and strong sour taste of high-altitude coffee, and the beans themselves are soft, so most Brazilian commercial beans are easy to bake and taste softer.

Before 1990, Brazil almost adopted solarization treatment, but times have changed. with the continuous improvement of Brazil's national strength, the progress of science and technology has to meet the needs of the market at the same time. Nowadays, all kinds of coffee treatments (water washing, sun drying, semi-washing, anaerobic fermentation, etc.) can be seen in Brazil today, of which the Brazilian original semi-washing method 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.
