Qianjie-Kenya Coffee Flavor, exquisite treatment sharing

Qianjie told you the story of coffee in Kenya today! Kenya is geographically close to Ethiopia and is also considered to be one of the places of human origin (fossilized human skulls from about 2.5 million years ago have been unearthed in the country). However, Kenyan coffee does not come from Ethiopia. The prevailing view now is that around 1893, missionaries brought bourbon coffee to Kenya and other places from the French island of Bourbon (Reunion). Therefore, many of the mainstream Kenyan beans belong to the bourbon line (one of the important branches of Arabica coffee).

In the 1950s, the world-famous Scott Laboratory (Scott Laboratory) selected two hybrids, SL-28 and SL-34, from many experimental results. This is the first time that the coffee industry has recognized the quality of artificial breeding, breaking the myth that only natural varieties are the best in coffee.

Due to the importance attached to the government level and the joint efforts of farms, cooperatives, farmers and research institutes, Kenyan coffee is among the best in Africa and even in the world in terms of yield and quality. Therefore, Kenyan coffee is also known as the "Heart of Africa".

Because of adequate fertilization and careful care, "Heart of Africa" does not have the wild and rich aroma of flowers and fruits like Ethiopian coffee. Instead, it generally tastes clean and the acidity is very pure. Accompanied by raspberry, orange peel, grapefruit, virgin fruit and other sweet and sour flavors.

Kenyan coffee beans are basically treated with fine washing, because water washing is the most important treatment for high-quality coffee beans. generally speaking, the coffee after this treatment has the purest flavor, the lowest miscellaneous flavor, and the best fruity and sour taste. therefore, fine washing is the main treatment of Kenyan coffee.
