Qianjie-introduction to Ethiopian Coffee

Ethiopia is an underdeveloped country located in northeast Africa, but this country is a famous coffee producer in the world.

Ethiopia has the most diverse coffee ecosystem in the world (forest coffee, semi-forest coffee, pastoral coffee and plantation coffee), which enables the preservation of its rich Arabica genes, coupled with multiple treatments of sun, water and semi-washing, showing a complex and varied flavor. It can be said that most of the "taste spectrum" of coffee producing areas around the world can be drunk here, reflecting Ethiopia's inclusive "king flavor". In addition, Ethiopia is the cradle of Arabica coffee beans, and growing, stir-frying and brewing coffee are unique local cultural heritage.

Yirga Cheffe is a small town in eastern Egypt, 1800-2000m above sea level. The ancient saying "Yirga" means "settle down" and "Cheffe" means "wetland". Yejaschen, which is attached to the Sidamo region, is very popular in the world boutique coffee circle because of its unique jasmine fragrance and citrus acid. This special taste is also known as "Yejashifen" taste. According to the defect rate of raw beans, Yejia snow caffeine can be divided into five grades of G1~G5 from good to bad. It is generally washed with water, but there are also a small number of excellent beans intended to be insolated to enhance the charming fruit aroma and mellow thickness.

The Sidamo production area is very close to Yega Cherophine, and its flavor is also very similar. After delicate washing or sun treatment, it also has floral and citrus flavors, soft sour taste and the same price as Yega Chet. Like Yejasuffe, this variety has medium-sized beans, but there are also small-grain varieties with dwarf plants. Sidamo coffee is generally light to medium roasted to retain the bright sour taste and intoxicating floral aroma of the variety.

Yega Xuefei, one of the nine major producing areas in Ethiopia, except for a small number of powerful coffee farms, mostly belongs to the pastoral coffee model. Yega Xuefei's grading system is not based on the number of eyes, but on the proportion of defective beans in the total number of raw beans.

After manual selection, the lowest defect rate can be rated as the highest level of Grade 1.
