Introduction to exquisite Ethiopian coffee beans

When it comes to Ethiopia, let's first talk about the origin of coffee. In about the sixth century, when Kardai, an Arab shepherd, was driving sheep to the Ethiopian prairie for grazing, he was very excited and excited to see each goat. He felt very strange. Later, after careful observation, he found that these sheep were excited only after eating some kind of red fruit. Cardai tasted some curiously. He found that the fruits were very sweet and delicious, and he felt very refreshed after eating them. From then on, he often went to eat this delicious fruit with the sheep. Later, a Muslim passed by and took some of this incredible red fruit home and distributed it to other parishioners, so its magical effect spread.

We will not forget that Africa is the hometown of coffee. Coffee trees are likely to be found in Ethiopia's KAFFA province. Later, batches of slaves were sold from Africa to Yemen and the Arabian Peninsula, and coffee was taken everywhere along the way. To be sure, Yemen started growing coffee in the 15th century or earlier. Although Arabia had the busiest port city in the world at that time, it banned the export of any seeds. This barrier was finally broken through by the Dutch, and in 1616, they finally smuggled the surviving coffee trees and seeds to the Netherlands and began to grow them in greenhouses.

In the northern part of the Great Rift Valley, a series of lakes are scattered, inlaid like pearls in the Horn of Africa. Lake Turkana stretches from Kenya to Ethiopia. This is not only the cradle of mankind, but also the cradle of coffee.

Yejia Xuefei, nearly 2,000 meters above sea level, is one of the highest coffee producing areas in the world. It has been a wetland since ancient times. "Yirga" means "settle down" and "Cheffe" means "wetland". Lake Turkana, Lake Abaya and Lake Chamo bring abundant water vapor. The Rift Valley, represented by Misty valley, is foggy all the year round, like spring all the year round, with a gentle breeze, cool and humid, and thousands of coffee trees thrive, giving birth to the unique and unpredictable atmosphere of Yejia Xuefei's unique fragrance of flowers and fruits.

European monastic academics opened up a local coffee growing industry, which was later run by coffee communities or cooperatives in villages around the town. There are no special plantations here, and coffee trees are naturally scattered in the forest and countryside. During the harvest season, the Ethiopian Coffee Trading Company will go to town to buy coffee beans collected by farmers and eventually sell them under the brand name "Yega Xuefei".

Yega Chuefei exudes an extremely complex aroma and shows an extremely excellent taste that is difficult to describe. In general, the dry aroma of Yega Chuefei is full of fruit, with strong aromas of dried fruit, strawberry, mango and apricot jam. Wet fragrance is like sweet syrup, like sticky apricot juice, wrapped in plain honey or chocolate. The entrance is not strong, the mellow thickness is medium, the sour taste is not obvious, but it is lively and bright, like fruit black tea.
