When it comes to coffee ranking, maybe it would be more appropriate to say coffee price ranking. Why? Qianjie believes that all coffee has a price, which can be clearly ranked by price, for example, Blue Mountain Coffee, Panamanian Rose Summer Coffee, Kopi Luwak and so on are all one of the most expensive coffee in the world. When it comes to the best coffee ranking, Qianjie thinks there is no absolute ranking. Because everyone has different tastes and likes different, what is the best to drink? Not necessarily the most expensive is the best to drink, only suitable for their favorite taste is the best to drink.

With the rise of the third wave of boutique coffee in China, more and more people begin to change their understanding of black coffee from simple American coffee to hand-brewed coffee, individual coffee and other concepts. In the coffee shop is more likely to see American coffee espresso, especially in the busy time, take the time to have a cup of coffee, give yourself a rest, you will feel very satisfied in an instant.

Is it the most expensive coffee?

In fact, the first person to use the word boutique to pack coffee was Ms. Erna Knudsen, who is known as the godmother of boutique coffee. In 1974, she introduced the concept of boutique coffee in an exclusive interview with tea and coffee, which is used to distinguish between high-quality coffee beans and mediocre commercial bulk coffee beans. It is emphasized that the soul of boutique coffee lies in that the coffee from different producing areas will show different regional flavor because of the difference in altitude, soil and water, climate, treatment and planting intention. But it is worth noting that the term boutique coffee did not spread around the world until the establishment of the American Fine Coffee Association. On the other hand, fine coffee not only attaches importance to the influence of coffee planting in the country of origin, but also emphasizes the flavor and taste characteristics of coffee.

In 1982, inspired by the godmother of coffee, Tedringo, Donna Shaw and others co-founded the National Fine Coffee Association (SCAA). In 2009, the definition of fine coffee was refined: the cup score of more than 80 points can be called boutique coffee.

When many friends first came into contact with coffee, they learned more about their love from Italian coffee and American coffee, so as to pursue black coffee. Black coffee is a cup of coffee brewed directly from coffee beans without any ingredients. It tastes very different from American Italian coffee. So it will appear to say that the coffee is bitter and sour. However, black coffee can best reflect the flavor of local coffee beans, and it is also pursued by friends who like coffee.

How to choose the hand-made coffee beans?

Whether it is a single bean or Italian bean requires fresh, single bean depends on the origin, altitude, treatment, Italian bean to see the matching formula. Coffee is mainly divided into three regions: African beans, which are mainly acidity of flowers and fruits; Asian beans, which are mainly rich in nut herbs; and American beans, which are mainly balanced by nut chocolate. Qianjie rations bean coffee is the representative coffee of the major producing areas, with obvious flavor of the producing areas. At the beginning, coffee beans were mainly washed and insolated, but later treatments were carried out on the basis of water washing or sun exposure, while Qianjie believes that washed coffee beans can better reflect the local coffee flavor, so the rations beans in Qianjie are mainly washed. It is a representative of a production area or a way of treatment in Qianjie, which is carefully selected from multiple production areas.

The following front street introduces the rations of front street coffee, beans and coffee:

[Ethiopia]

First of all, the first one must get Ethiopian coffee. Ethiopia is currently the largest coffee producer in Africa and is recognized as the birthplace of coffee in the world. There are many kinds of coffee, and most of the beans are named after the producing areas. Among them, the producing areas of Yegashifi and Sidamo are the most famous. In the 1970s, in order to improve the quality of raw coffee beans, the government introduced the water washing method. Later, the coffee beans in Yejasuefe production area were mainly washed, such as: Yega Sheffei coffee. The main flavors are: Jasmine, citric acid, berry notes. The coffee beans in the Sidamo producing area are mainly in the sun, such as: Xidamo Sunflower Kui coffee, the main flavors are: berries, flowers, jackfruit, melon, honey.

Precisely because Ethiopia is the gene bank of coffee, the flavor of coffee will still be different in different producing areas. Therefore, in order to let people taste more of the coffee flavor of different producing areas of Ethiopia, there are more than a dozen coffee beans in Ethiopia in the front street. Such as: Yega Sheffield Cochel Coffee, Yega Sheffield Sun Red Cherry Coffee, Yega Sheffield Conga Coffee, Yega Sheffield Rose Village Red label Coffee and so on.

[Brazil]

And then there's Brazilian coffee. Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer, even if the output is large, but there is no shortage of high-quality Brazilian coffee beans. When a friend asks Qianjie if there are any unsour coffee beans, Brazilian coffee is the first choice for Qianjie baristas. As the coffee planting in Brazil is mostly sun-exposed, the coffee fruit can ripen quickly in a short time, so the beans are softer.

The flavor of Brazilian coffee is also a soft bean flavor, with weak acidity, good sweetness, delicate and supple entrance and overall balance. The Brazilian coffee on the front street has rations beans Brazilian coffee and individual Brazilian queen coffee.

[Indonesia]

When it comes to Indonesian coffee, it is famous not only for Kopi Luwak, but also for Manning coffee. Although Kopi Luwak is from Indonesia, there is little special fermentation method, while Mantenin coffee is based on the local climate and the wet bubble method, because the local weather is uncertain, often rain, and the local economic conditions were relatively backward at that time, there was not enough money for Fully Washed treatment, so a very unique semi-washing treatment-wet planing method was derived. As a result, it has achieved the unique flavor in the world, and the flavor of Manning coffee has also achieved the wet planing method. Therefore, Qianjie chose Indonesian Manning Coffee as the representative coffee of Indonesian producing areas. There are Indonesian Mantenin Coffee and Golden Manning Coffee in Qianjie.

Indonesian Mantenin Coffee is more rich and smooth than Blue Mountain Coffee, even with herbs and spices, while Golden Manning Coffee is cleaner and smoother.

[Colombia]

Colombian coffee is one of the few individual coffees sold under the name of the country. Those who are familiar with Colombia's "four treasures" all know that coffee is one of Colombia's "four treasures". Colombia's mild climate, humid air, and diverse climate make it a harvest season all year round, with coffee from different producing areas maturing in different periods. Colombian coffee is of unique quality, full-bodied taste and endless aftertaste, which can be called fine coffee.

The Colombian coffee beans in the Qianjie coffee rations come from the Whelan producing area, which is the most famous boutique coffee producing area in Colombia, surrounded by mountains and planted above 1500 meters above sea level, where the most important rivers in Colombia meet. Bring rich water vapor and water resources. Colombian coffee is mainly floral soft fruit acid, such as: Colombian Rose Valley Coffee, Colombian Flower Moon Night Coffee.

[Guatemala]

When it comes to Guatemalan coffee, the first thing some coffee gluttons think of is the feeling of "smoke". Soft acidity and balanced taste are the characteristics of Guatemalan coffee, but also the characteristics of Central American coffee. The Vivette Nanguo producing area is surrounded by three volcanoes, which provide rich minerals for the soil here, which can be more than 2000 meters above sea level and produce fruity coffee.

Guatemalan coffee, there are Guatemalan Vivette Nanguo Coffee and Guatemalan Flower God Coffee on the front street.

[Costa Rica]

Costa Rican coffee is the representative of "as sweet as honey", mainly because Costa Rican coffee beans are named after honey treatment. Costa Rica grows coffee at a high altitude, with a wide temperature difference between day and night, and is surrounded by fertile volcanic soil, which makes Costa Rica rich in extremely hard beans (SHB grade). Costa Rican coffee is sweet.

Such as the Costa Rican Mozart coffee, Costa Rican Bach coffee and Costa Rican Milasu coffee treated with Qianjie raisin honey, with sweet aromas of raisins and blueberries, and aromas of sweet-scented osmanthus and roses.

[Yunnan Coffee]

When it comes to coffee, of course, there is no shortage of coffee from our country. Yunnan coffee, as a local coffee, is now slowly entering everyone's attention and falling in love with the taste of nuts, brown sugar and tea. In fact, there are three coffee producing areas in China, namely, Fujian, Hainan and Yunnan. However, because Fujian and Hainan are located in coastal areas with high temperatures and low elevations, coffee trees of Arabica varieties cannot be planted. China's boutique coffee cultivation is concentrated in Yunnan Province, Yunnan small-grain coffee, strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong.

[Panamanian Coffee]

Panamanian coffee is most famous for its rosy summer coffee, of which the most famous is the rose summer coffee of the Emerald Manor, which tastes very delicious with a balanced and smooth aroma of citrus, berries and flowers. But for friends who want to try rosy summer coffee, emerald manor coffee may be a little expensive, in order to allow more friends to taste the flavor of Panamanian rosy summer coffee, so the front street uses Pokuit rosy summer coffee from Pokuit in Panama as rations.

In fact, Qianjie believes that coffee beans from any producing area can be cooked with a good flavor, which mainly depends on the method of hand-flushing operation. On the other hand, the dripping process of hand-made coffee is completely controlled by hand, and the way of filling water will have a great impact on the flavor of the final product. With the use of small flow water injection, the liquid level of the filter cup will not be greatly improved, the powder layer on the cup wall is thicker, the extraction time is prolonged, the coffee concentration becomes higher, and the taste is thick. In addition, the speed of the circle will also have an impact on the flavor. When the winding speed is accelerated, the scouring strength of water increases, and the tumbling degree of the powder layer in the cup increases, thus the extraction rate is improved.

Another important link is the freshness of coffee beans. Qianjie thinks that all good coffee needs fresh coffee beans. Therefore, the coffee beans shipped in Qianjie coffee are all roasted within 5 days. The purpose of Qianjie roasting is "freshly roasted coffee". So that every guest who places an order is the freshest coffee when he receives the coffee. The bean cultivation period of coffee is about 4-7 days, so when the guest gets it, it is the time when the flavor is the best.

For those who need to be ground, Qianjie warmly reminds you that if the coffee beans are ground in advance, there is no need to raise the beans, because in the process of transportation, the pressure caused by carbon dioxide in the package can also make the coffee flavor round. so you can drink a cup of coffee as soon as you receive the coffee powder. But the coffee powder needs to be brewed in time, because the coffee powder oxidizes more quickly after contact with the air, that is to say, the flavor of the coffee will dissipate more quickly, and the flavor of the coffee is not so good. Therefore, Qianjie suggests buying whole beans, grinding and flushing now, so that we can better taste the flavor of coffee.

As for which coffee tastes better, it depends on the individual. After all, everyone likes it differently. If possible, Qianjie suggests that everyone try the coffee flavor of different producing areas and experience different coffee culture.
