Coffee review

A rare "treasure" from Ethiopia

Published: 2024-11-10 Author: World Gafei
Last Updated: 2024/11/10, Recently, it seems to be introducing Ethiopian beans, two typical beans, Yega Xuefei and Harald, a kind of washing and a kind of sun exposure, each with its own obvious characteristics.

The introduction may give you the impression that Yega Xuefei has a light taste, high acidity, fruity and floral aromas, but may be slightly less mellow, while Harald is full-bodied, moderate acidity and heavier mellowness than Sheffield. Due to sun fermentation, it produces a taste similar to red wine.

So is there a kind of bean that can combine the characteristics of both? it has both the rich floral fragrance of Yega Xuefei and the rich mellow of Harald. This is one of the beans I would like to introduce to you today-- Sun-Dried or Natural-Processed, which is different from the typical water-washed Yega Xuefei that we see every day.

Recently, it was found that a batch of sun Yega Chuefei flowed into China, in the hands of some merchants and professional players, such as happybob in Zhejiang and lesbians wandering around in the coffee salon (Beijing), so I paid a special visit to the coffee salon today, wanting to worship this rare "treasure" and asked lesbians to bake after I arrived.

When I arrived, brother Lara was baking other beans, first Mantenin in Indonesia, then Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, and finally my sunny snow.

The beans have not yet been opened, now is not the best time to drink, about 3 days is the best time to drink, about 7 days is the most fragrant moment, so save the good day until then to share with you, hold back!

Looking for information about the sun on the Internet, enter the keyword sun-dried yirgacheffe, can find information is really very few, can be opened is even less pitiful, it can be seen that it is rare.

Finally, open a web page about sunbathing, which is also a website for coffee lovers, introducing the characteristics of sunbathing and comparing it with water-washed Yejiaxuefei.

Now an excerpt for translation, to share with you:

The most exciting thing about this test is to be able to compare the similarities and differences between washing and sunbathing. For those who are not familiar with the terms "washed" and "sun-dried", I would like to add that this mainly refers to the different treatment methods of coffee, specifically how to remove the pulp from the coffee berries. The sun method can be said to be dry treatment, the coffee berries on the drying ground, rely on the sun to let the flesh fall off naturally. The washing treatment can be said to be wet treatment, which is a method to remove the pulp of coffee through the mechanical movement of water.

These two kinds of Yega Chuefei have very strong and special fruit aromas, which may be the commonness of coffee beans produced in the Yega Sheffield region. In terms of taste, the mellow degree of washing Yega Chuefei is much worse than that of tanning Yega Chevy. Due to the strong fruit aroma and relatively light mellowness of washed Yega Chuefei, I think it will be an excellent material for making iced coffee. In addition, in the same sun, the taste of washed snow is also slightly thin. This evaluation may also have a certain impact due to the difference in baking date, so it can only be used as a reference. Sun Shifei is from the Kent Bakery (Kent Roasting Plant) and the baking date is around January 24, 2010, while the Water washing Celebrity is from the Amsterdam Bakery (Amsterdam Roasting Plant), which is baked around October 2009.

These are two kinds of beans that the author used to test above.

In addition, I also looked up the relevant information, even for Starbucks, sun snow is very rare, only in stores equipped with Clover will be equipped with sun snow. Its rarity is evident.
