The origin of high-quality coffee beans introduce the general knowledge of coffee

* Brazil

Brazil is the most important coffee producing area in the world, accounting for 1x3 of the total output in the world. Brazil has 10 states that produce coffee beans. Due to differences in region and climate, the quality of Brazilian coffee beans is inevitably different. Therefore, Brazilian coffee beans are divided into NO. 1~NO. 3To keep the quality neat and stable, it can also have better results when processing and roasting. Brazilian coffee is medium-fragrant, sour and mellow, has a mild bitter taste and is famous for its smooth taste. Among all kinds of Brazilian coffee varieties, Santos Coffee is more famous. Santos Coffee can also be called Bourbon Santos. Bourbon Santos is of good quality and has a round taste with moderate acidity and strong sweetness. Bourbon Santos is considered to be an indispensable ingredient for mixed coffee.

* Blue Mountains

Blue Mountain Coffee is produced in the Blue Mountains of western Jamaica, hence its name. Blue Mountain is a mountain range with an elevation of 2256 meters. Coffee trees are planted on a steep hillside about 1000 meters above sea level. The annual output of Blue Mountain Coffee is only about 700 tons. Blue Mountain coffee beans are full in shape and slightly bigger than ordinary beans. Sour, fragrant, mellow, sweet taste is uniform and strong, slightly bitter taste, harmonious taste, excellent flavor, suitable for individual coffee. Due to the low output, most of the products sold on the market are "special blue mountains", that is, mixed coffee with other coffee beans at the bottom of the blue mountains.

* Colombia

Colombia is the second largest coffee producer in the world, accounting for 12% of the world's total output, second only to Brazil and ranking first among Colombian Mild-producing countries. Colombian coffee trees are planted in the highlands and have a small cultivated area in order to take care of harvesting. The harvested coffee beans are refined with water washing (wet method). Colombian coffee beans are of neat quality and can be called the standard beans among coffee beans. Colombian coffee beans are large in shape, light green, with a special thick flavor, and are widely favored for their rich and unique aroma. The taste is sweet in the acid and low in bitterness, which can lead to multi-level flavor with the different degree of baking. Medium baking gives full play to the sweetness of beans, with mellow acidity and bitterness; deep baking increases bitterness, but the sweetness still doesn't disappear much. Generally speaking, medium-deep roasting will make the taste more personalized, not only as a single drink, but also suitable for mixed coffee.

* Manning

Indonesia is a big coffee producer. Coffee is mainly produced in Java, Sumatra and Sulawi, with ROBUSTA species accounting for 90% of the total production. Manning is one of the few ARABICA species. The granule of Mantenin is large, the bean quality is very hard, and the rate of defects in the planting process is on the high side, which is usually selected manually after harvest. If the control process is not strict enough, it is easy to cause a mixture of good and bad quality, and different baking degrees also directly affect the taste. Therefore, it has become a more controversial single product. Before Blue Mountain was discovered, Manning was regarded as the best coffee because of its rich and mellow taste, not astringent but not sour, mellow and bitter; moderate roasting will leave a moderate sour taste and unique flavor; if the roasting is too shallow, it will be powdery and astringent.

* Kona

Hawaiian coffee beans are grown on volcanic terrain. At the same time, there is a high density of artificial farming, so each bean can be said to be spoiled, the price is naturally expensive, second only to the Blue Mountains. Hawaiian Kona beans are evenly shaped and have a strong sour and sweet taste. The palate is moist and smooth. Moderate baking makes beans sour, while deep baking aggravates both bitterness and mellow taste. This coffee bean grows from sea level to 6000 feet. Gourmet coffee generally grows only in mountain areas, growing at a height of about 4000, 000, 000 feet, requiring annual rainfall of about 80 feet, and the dry and wet seasons are very obvious. The soil for growing gourmet coffee beans should be very fertile and usually have volcanic rock, and light cloudy or cloudy weather is also necessary in the growing environment of high-quality coffee beans. The temperature during the day needs 15-20 degrees Celsius. This climate results in a longer growth process, a unique growth and climatic environment that leads to a stronger coffee flavor.
