When it comes to coffee, many people may think of Colombia, the world's largest exporter of washed coffee, but in fact, although all Colombian coffee is actually very different, and the quality is also very different, most of the coffees we see are marked with the words supremo or excelso, which is the grading standard of beans in Colombia, and many bean merchants in the country have translated them into super-grade, high-quality and other words. In fact, these two words just mark the particle size of beans, which is not directly related to the taste and grade of coffee beans. Supremo beans are neater and larger, while excelso beans are slightly smaller and slightly less uniform, but this does not mean that excelso beans are not as good as supremo.

Let me give you an example.

In the eyes of many coffee drinkers in China, Huilan seems to represent Colombian high-quality coffee. Huilan, or Huila, is one of the important coffee producing areas in Colombia. some bean merchants translate into "Huilan" or "Huilan", or "Uila", "Wula" and "Wula". In fact, it's the same thing, that is, the transliteration of Huila.

Like Colombia, although Colombia has high-quality coffee, it is not necessarily high-quality coffee from Colombia, it is also the same for huila producing areas, huila is an important producing area, but not all high-quality beans from huila, but there are indeed many producers who sell different quality coffee under the name huila. The quality here is not in terms of appearance. It is distinguished by flavor and taste.

Huilan, Colombia

The above bean tastes good, can feel its rich potential in baking, roasted to the degree of urban baking, smooth taste, moderate mellow, with obvious flower and fruit aroma, although it is washed beans, but also has a hint of wine aroma, the whole is soft and round, feel very comfortable coffee.

Valencia Coffee farming (mill) is a small-scale coffee production family located in Neiva, Huilan Province. this family has a 30-year history of coffee cultivation and processing, and has always maintained a relatively low-key attitude and focused on the delicate processing of coffee. Unlike most coffee growers and processing plants, Valencia abandoned the original unified Colombian standard, no longer graded its coffee according to supremo or excelso, and no longer marked supremo on sacks, but only marked valencia (Valencia) to distinguish other mass-produced commercial beans. But if we have to set a Colombian standard for Valencia beans, I think it only meets the excelso level, but it is this bean that makes me feel different after drinking it. This is definitely not a flat cup of coffee, but embodies the wisdom and hard work of coffee farmers. It is really difficult to tell the aroma and round taste.
