Readers interested in Ethiopian boutique beans should pay more attention to the producing areas of Sidamo, Yegashifi (especially rare sun-dried beans), Harald, Lim and Jinbi, whose rich orange and floral aromas are different from those of Central and South American beans. Ethiopia is a treasure trove of coffee genes, and experts estimate that there may be more than 2,000 Arabica subspecies hidden in the country, but the biggest dilemma facing the coffee industry in Ethiopia is that the output is too low. This is related to small-scale farming and organic cultivation, with an average yield of about 800,1200 kilograms per hectare, which is much lower than that in Central and South America (Costa Rica produces an average of two tons of coffee beans per hectare), which shows that Egypt still has a long way to go to increase production. In addition, natural low-caffeine coffee trees in Egypt are being planted. Natural low-caffeine beans can be sold as sun-dried beans as soon as two ○○ in nine years. It is very common in the ROC market, also known as Ethiopian mocha, but its price is much lower than that of Harald mocha. Jima production area is famous for its many varieties, coffee quality and flavor are also extremely changeable, lucky to be able to buy good goods at a low price. The quality of Gemma, tangerine and sweetness are as good as the higher-priced Sidamo, but you can't expect good luck every time. Although Gemma is treated in the sun, the coffee beans are less fruity, sunny and even earthy, which should be related to the lack of rigor. For every penny, bulk commercial beans will inevitably be mixed with good beans and bad beans. But do not underestimate the potential of Gemma to develop high-quality beans, because there is a Kafa forest as a base, so there is no lack of excellent varieties, as long as the sun production process is improved, the quality will certainly improve rapidly.

Gemma is the capital of the Kafa Forest, to the south to the Gbarnga, the capital of the ancient Kafa Kingdom, which is famous for its wild coffee. During the seven-year summer vacation of ○⊙, the Egyptian authorities announced that natural low-caffeine coffee trees had been planted on a large scale. The low-caffeine varieties that have attracted worldwide attention were found in the Kafa Forest and added a lot of topics to this area.
