Introduction to Brazilian Coffee Flavor and Taste Brazilian fine coffee beans in Brazilian coffee producing areas

The topography of Brazil is mainly divided into two parts, one is the Brazilian plateau above 500 meters above sea level, distributed in the south of Brazil, the other is the plain below 200 meters above sea level, mainly distributed in the north of the Amazon River basin and the west. The topography of the whole territory is divided into Amazon plain, Paraguay basin, Brazilian plateau and Guyana plateau, of which the Amazon plain accounts for about 1% of the national area. There are three major river systems: Amazon, Parana and San Francisco. The Amazon River is 6751 kilometers long, running through northwest Brazil and covering an area of 3.9 million square kilometers in the Brazilian basin; the Parana River system, which includes the Parana and Paraguay rivers, flows through the southwest, with rapids and waterfalls, and is rich in hydraulic resources; the San Francisco River system, with a total length of 2900 kilometers, flows through the arid north-east and is the main source of irrigation in the region. The coastline is more than 7400 kilometers long and the territorial sea is 12 nautical miles wide.

Lead 188 nautical miles of overseas exclusive economic zone. Among them, the Amazon Plain is the largest plain in the world, the Amazon River is the largest river in the world, and the Brazilian Plateau is the largest plateau in the world. Sao Paulo is the largest city in the southern hemisphere. Detailed data are shown in the following table:

Seven of the 10 major municipal production areas are in the southeastern state of Minas Gerais and three in the state of Esp í rito Santo. It can be seen that the flat terrain, sufficient light and heat, rich water sources and excellent port conditions have created Brazil's excellent advantages in the production and export of coffee beans. So far, Brazil, as the world's largest exporter of coffee beans, produces 30 to 35 percent of the world's coffee annually, accounting for 1/3 of the world's coffee consumption. Brazilian coffee beans are one of the main raw materials of the world coffee industry. Secondly, it is necessary to understand the export and consumption of Brazilian coffee beans. Coffee is a traditional industry in Brazil. Coffee cultivation in Brazil has been among the best in the world since 1960.

At the top of the list, the average annual output is 24.6 million bags (60 kg each). In 2002, due to favorable weather and a good year for coffee production, Brazilian coffee reached the best level in history, reaching 47.2 million bags, an increase of 59.6 per cent over 28.137 million bags in 2001. According to the report of the United States Department of Agriculture in November 2002, due to the increase in productivity and the increase in the number of plants per unit area, the actual production of Brazilian coffee is much higher than the above figure, which should be 51.6 million bags. In 2002, Brazilian coffee exports reached a 270-year high, with a total export volume of 27.99 million bags (60 kg each), an increase of 19.3 per cent over 23.46 million bags in 2001. Due to the decline in international coffee prices, coffee trade volume was 1.355 billion US dollars, down 5.4 percent from 1.432 billion US dollars last year.
