Coffee review

Common sense of coffee beans in Ethiopia

Last Updated: 2024/09/20, In recent years, scientists have studied the coffee gene in Ethiopia and believe that Arabica originated from the Cafa forest in the southwest-the Gemma producing area-and then transplanted to Harald in the east and Lekamp in the northwest. The latter two genes are far less complex than coffee in the Kafa forest. Although the coffee beans in the northwest are obviously more spectacular than those in the southwest, the cup test results are not as good as those in the southwest.

The latter two genes are far less complex than coffee in the Kafa forest.

Although the coffee beans in the northwest are obviously more "spectacular" than those in the southwest, the cup test results are not as good as those in the southwest. The Ethiopian Agricultural Research Institute analyzed the bean grain size of the southwest producing areas (including Gemma, Sidamo, Yegashefi, Lim and Bebeca) and the northwest producing areas (including Jinbi and Lekamp). It is concluded that the bean weight or appearance of beans in the northwest is better than that in the southwest.

However, selling well does not mean that the taste is good. The coffee flavor of southwest producing areas is better than that of northwest producing areas regardless of word-of-mouth or cup test results. Beans can not be judged by appearance, which is the most important feature of Ethiopia.
