What flowers do the white flower flavor in coffee refer to? Which hand-brewed coffee beans have the strongest fragrance?

As we all know, the "white flower fragrance" in coffee flavor specifically refers to the aroma of a type of fresh and elegant white flower, which is the collective name of various white flower aromas. Things like jasmine, orange blossoms, gardenia, coffee flowers, etc. all belong to the category of white flowers. They are the most common and easiest to capture fragrance in coffee.

Although it is easy to capture, it is only compared to other types of flower fragrance. For friends who have just started, it is not easy to drink the fragrance of flowers in coffee. Most people, including Qianjie, cannot directly capture the fragrance of flowers at the beginning. So friends often ask Qianjie how to drink the white fragrance in coffee?

How can I drink the white flowers in coffee? Qianjie has shared in many articles that although we capture the flavor of coffee through the act of "drinking coffee," the flavor of coffee is not what we "drink", but what we "smell" through our sense of smell. Why? Because the main component that constitutes the flavor of coffee is the "aroma"! Take jasmine flowers as an example. The jasmine fragrance in coffee refers to the fact that coffee has the same aroma molecules as the jasmine fragrance. After the coffee is drunk, these aroma molecules will enter our nasal ducts due to evaporation, and then be captured by our nose. The smell of smell behind the nose is captured, and then the corresponding flavor is sensed in parallel, namely the jasmine fragrance.

However, because many friends believe that the flavor of coffee is derived from drinking, they focus all on taste, which makes it easy for people to ignore the aroma captured by their sense of smell and reduce the probability of distinguishing flavor. Of course, even if you notice that flavor is dominated by aroma, identifying concrete flavors is not a simple task. The reason is also very simple, because an aroma is composed of hundreds of aroma molecules. For example, the aroma of jasmine alone is composed of hundreds of volatile organic compounds such as lipids, terpenes, alcohols, and ketones. The jasmine fragrance in coffee is only a small part of it. Because some compounds are the same, we can associate the jasmine fragrance from the aroma of coffee.

But precisely because only a small part is the same and is not complete, we can only associate the fragrance of jasmine by looking through the common points of aroma in memory, rather than directly concluding that it is jasmine. Therefore, tasting the concrete flavor from coffee not only requires knowing the structure of the aroma, but also requires people to have actual contact with the real aroma and burn it well in their brains, so that they can taste the flavor of jasmine from coffee. Then some friends may see this and ask: Is there any way to help us quickly improve the flavor perception of coffee? To be reasonable, the method is actually only one: drink more and record more. Feel the cup of coffee in as many dimensions as possible during the drinking process, its aroma, its taste, and its taste, so that we can better understand a cup of coffee; then through comparison, we can know the difference between it and other coffees; more recording actually means recording more aromas, whether it is coffee or other than coffee, which helps us to better and quickly identify the flavor. In addition, the choice of coffee beans is also important. Sharing is often common on the front street, and the flavor of a cup of coffee will be affected by many factors such as variety, planting environment, processing method, and degree of roasting. Although they also have the fragrance of flowers, the fragrance of some coffee beans is very faint. If we don't taste it carefully, it will be difficult for us to capture the fragrance of flowers in the coffee;

The floral flavor of some coffee beans is very strong, because the variety and planting environment allow them to produce a large amount of floral fragrance, and then the degree of processing and baking is a choice that can amplify the floral fragrance. Therefore, the floral flavor of coffee washed out with it will be very obvious, and we can feel the floral flavor of coffee without too careful sniffing and judgment. If you also want to taste the rich white flower fragrance from coffee, then these two beans in the Qianjie Bean List will be very suitable ~ The first is the Qianjie Panama Poquet Rose Summer. Needless to say, Rose Summer is famous for its rich white flower fragrance. The Panama region is very conducive to the development of coffee flavor, so the rose summer flavor grown in this region is very excellent. For example, the Front Street Panama Poquet rose summer sold at the Front Street Tmall Taobao flagship store has a strong jasmine flavor. In addition, we can also taste citrus, honey, green tea and other things. Clean flavor ~

The other one is Qianjie Yejia Shefei Guodin mentioned by Qianjie in yesterday's sharing. This bean has a strong aroma of white flowers, fresh lemon and clean green tea flavors. It is very classic Yejia Shefei flavor. If you want to drink a strong white floral aroma from coffee, then this bean is also a very good choice ~(Note: Qianjie Taobao Tmall coffee bean spike event will start soon. You can check the time and bean list in the public account of "Qianjie Coffee Little Coffee God"~)
