At present, there is no clear judgment standard of fine coffee in the international community. Here, we will briefly explain the standards of the American Fine Coffee Association and the basic standards of coffee producing countries.

American Fine Coffee Association Standard:

1. Whether it has rich dry aroma (Fragrance). The so-called dry aroma refers to the aroma of roasted or ground coffee.

two。 Whether it has rich wet aroma (Aroma). Wet aroma refers to the aroma of coffee extract.

3. Whether it has rich acidity (Acidity). It refers to the sour taste of coffee, the combination of rich sour taste and sugar can increase the sweet taste of coffee liquid.

4. Whether it has rich alcohol thickness (Body). It refers to the concentration and weight of the coffee liquid.

5. Whether it has rich afterrhyme (Aftertaste). It refers to the afterrhyme of coffee, which is evaluated according to the flavor after drinking or spitting.

6. Whether it has rich taste (Flavor). Refers to the taste, the upper palate to feel the aroma and taste of coffee, to understand the taste of coffee.

Evaluation criteria for producing countries:

1. A variety of fine coffee. It is better to use Arabica inherent variety Tibica or bourbon variety.

two。 Is the altitude, topography, climate, soil and refinement of the cultivated land or farm clear? Generally speaking, the coffee with high altitude is of higher quality, and the fertile volcanic soil is the best.

Today's production power, tomorrow's production giant.

Perhaps under the influence of French colonial rule, coffee grown in Vietnam has a French flavor. Arabica coffee was first brought to Vietnam by French missionaries. More than 400,000 coffee trees were introduced to Vietnam from 1865 to 1876 and were planted near Tonkin Bay, mostly Java or bourbon varieties.

At present, Vietnam's coffee production is growing. Among Vietnam's new export products, tea ranks first and coffee ranks second. The main varieties produced are Robbite coffee beans, which exported 66000 bags in 1980 and soared to more than 200,000 tons in 1994. 96% of Robert's coffee comes from small farms, but some state-owned farms also grow coffee trees.

The yield of coffee in Vietnam is as high as 950 kilograms per hectare, and many newly planted coffee trees are invested by the Japanese.

Two years ago, I read a survey report that Vietnam has overtaken Colombia in coffee bean production, ranking second in the world after Brazil. But the trees planted are Robusta trees, and there is still a big gap between the quality of coffee beans and countries like Colombia and Brazil.
