Asian coffee with strong flavor The most important coffee producing area in mainland China Yunnan Province

Java produces a lot of coffee, but it is a pity that at present, most of them are robusta species with poor flavor, and there are few high-quality Arabica beans left. this is because a coffee disaster in the 1970s caused coffee farmers to abandon the high-quality but delicate Arabica. Robsta, which is high-yield, easy to take care of but low-quality, only a few government-owned estates still produce high-quality Arabica beans. Thanks to the existence of these manors, we can taste the excellent java beans. Often seen are Cayumas, Brawan and Gemma (or spelled as Jampit). The taste of these state-owned estates is very clean, coupled with soft fruit acidity and aroma, Kaoumas has a slightly heavier flavor, but the point is that these high-end Java beans have a sense of balance that ordinary Asian beans do not have, and less disturbing fishy smell!

Suitable for baking: City/Full city's top Mantenin is suitable from city to italian. The taste of light baking is very clean, sour and sweet; deep baking has a very deep flavor and strong taste. For a general grade, it is recommended to bake to full city or a little deeper.

Coffee cultivation in Sumatra began in the 18th century, when the planting area was near Aceh province on the north side of Lake Tawar. For a few days, most of the Sumatran coffee area is located in the south of Lindong, Subu and Takengon coffee. Because there is little difference between planting areas, Sumatran coffee does not use the producing area as the distinguishing standard, but the way of picking and handling has a great influence on the flavor of Sumatra coffee. The famous "Golden Manning" is an excellent product after the Japanese strictly control these procedures. This trend has now reached a consensus in Sumatra, so some famous coffee farms have been invited to act as consultants to local coffee farms to improve the quality of their coffee through their technical and industrial knowledge (KNOW-HOW). Mantenin is one of the most suitable coffee beans for deep roasting in the world. One of the famous reasons is that its own characteristics do not disappear after deep roasting. Its thick flavor and low acidity make it very popular in Taiwan. In fact, the high-quality mantenin is also very suitable for medium and shallow baking, which can show a good fruit flavor at this degree of baking.

Sulawesi (Sulawesi) aroma 3.5 minutes brightness 4 minutes mellow 4 points flavor 4 points aftertaste 4 points

Suitable for baking: City/Full city full city is the best way to start the pot just before the second explosion. Because the color of Sulawesi is not dark when baking, it is easy to overdo it if you use color as the standard of baking.

Sulawesi is also known as Cyberis, which is actually an old name. Sulawesi has three ways of washing, drying and semi-washing at the same time, but although the washed beans look good, the taste is often insipid. Ugly dried beans have thicker texture and better taste. In fact, most of the dried beans are semi-washed beans. The farm chooses to separate the pulp from the seeds. The beans are sent to the processing plant and then fermented and washed, or washed directly and then dried in the sun. Sulawesi Coffee is low in acidity, thick in texture and with a deep herbal flavor, similar to Sumatra's Mantenin as a whole. The most representative producing area is Traga. In addition to being a distinctive single bean, Sulawesi is also very suitable for mixing Asian coffee into Espresso recipes, and coffee lovers' first impressions are often calm and steady. Asian coffee is generally characterized by thick flavor, strong sweetness and round taste, but slightly flat aroma and brightness. It is precisely because of the heavy nature of Asian coffee that it is very suitable to be used as a base when making Italian coffee. The raw coffee beans in Asia are generally processed by wet or semi-wet process. most of the raw beans are uniform, but the color of the beans treated by semi-wet method is darker.

The main coffee producing area in mainland China is Yunnan Province, which was first planted in Binchuan, and then expanded to Dehong Prefecture in the southwest. Yunnan coffee can be seen in several big cities such as Baoshan, Mangshi, Tengchong and so on. The coffee beans in Yunnan are Arabica Typica and Cotml, of which the latter is smaller, so it is called small grain coffee. Perhaps because of the planting technology, the taste of Yunnan coffee is still quite obscure, so it is not so suitable for drinking alone, and it is OK to roast a little deeper and mix it into the formula of Espresso.

As a matter of fact, the cultivation of coffee in Taiwan has a long history. Both the British and the Japanese have planted coffee trees in Taiwan, but then they did not continue to promote it because of many political and economic factors. Until recently, because of the coffee boom, someone started to reinvest in it. Hebao Mountain in Yunlin Gukeng, Huisun Forest Farm in Nantou, and Dongshan Township in Tainan County are several famous coffee producing areas in Taiwan Province, and most of them are planted in Arabica. Taiwan coffee has a moderate flavor, low acidity and a hint of herbal flavor, similar to the synthesis of South American and Indonesian beans. At present, the output of coffee in Taiwan is not high, but because the popularity of coffee fever in Taiwan has caused many people to have a relationship with Fangze, the price has remained high, even using imports to pretend to be clear.
