In March, Lucky's global bean search team is about to set out. This time, Lucky specially invited Anthony Douglas, champion of the 2022 WBC (World Barista Competition), to join and lead the global bean search team, going deep into the six major coffee producing areas.

This time, the recruitment of the global bean search assistant has also been posted on Ruixing's official account, and the little assistant will follow the global bean search team to travel around the world. In addition to reimbursing the entire travel expenses, there is also a generous salary. As soon as the news came out, some netizens said that this was not a job. It was clearly the kind of paid travel and social security.

Some netizens saw that the recruitment conditions should be able to speak English and Portuguese, only to blame that they did not choose the right major, but now they can only eat lemon.

Some netizens are curious about what needs to be done as a bean hunter.

Judging from Lucky's recruitment requirements, bean-hunting assistant is certainly not the main job to find good coffee beans, after all, professional things have to be left to professionals to do. The job of the assistant should be to follow the bean search team and record the process of bean search to achieve the effect of publicity. (netizens with a clear mind said: lucky, the publicity effect of this recruitment has gone beyond the recruitment itself.

However, it also makes many netizens realize that there is such a profession as a bean hunter, and the workers who stay in the cubicle envy that bean hunters can travel everywhere and see the scenery of different countries. The job of bean hunter is really a free travel with a salary. Bean hunter, as the name implies, goes deep into the producing area of coffee and excavates coffee beans with commercial value (a comprehensive measure of flavor, yield, price and other factors). You know, the areas where coffee is grown are all rural areas, and bean hunters clearly say that when they travel around the world, they actually go to the countryside abroad to deal with local farmers and processing stations.

The coffee producing area is not all like the scenery of 4A tourist attractions, but more like Shankara, where the situation is turbulent, the road does not reach the village, and the mountain Kara can be reached by a long journey. Why do bean hunters run to these places? because safe places and easy to reach good producing areas have long been excavated by predecessors, and bean hunters behind want to find coffee beans of better quality and more suitable prices. They can only go deep into some unfamous producing areas, which are more remote, more difficult to reach, and the journey is full of danger. After arriving at the origin, the official work has just begun, and bean hunters have to taste a lot of coffee to find coffee beans that meet their own standards. Many children think that there are countless coffee drinks are very happy, in fact, drinking coffee in the producing area is very different from drinking coffee in a cafe.

It is often necessary to test hundreds of cups of coffee in the producing area, but note that bean hunters are looking for beans with good flavor among these hundreds of coffees, which means that some of these coffees are often "unforgettable". Even for a coffee enthusiast, such a strong coffee tasting is enough to keep him from drinking coffee for a while. After testing the beans in the cup, the bean hunter still has the work of summarizing, writing reports, talking about prices, arranging transportation and so on. Then went on to the next producing area to continue the search for beans. Do you still envy when you learn about the work of bean hunters?
