Introduction to the characteristic planting environment of Kenyan boutique coffee bean flavor and taste manor

Kenya is divided into seven provinces (PROVINCE) and one provincial special district (Nairobi province). The following provinces are divided into districts (DISTRICT), townships (DIVISION) and villages (LOCATION). Under the new constitution, the four-tier administrative structure will be changed to the central and county (COUNTY) levels. The 47 counties established under the new constitution will be officially operational after the 2013 general election.

The seven provinces are: central Kenya (Central Province), Coastal Province (Coast Province), Eastern Kenya Province (Eastern Province), Nyanza Province (Nyanza Province), Rift Valley Province (Rift Valley Province), Western Kenya Province (Western Province) and North-East Kenya Province (North Eastern Province).

Nairobi, with an area of 648 square kilometers, 1680 meters above sea level and a population of 3 million, is the political, economic, cultural, industrial and transportation center of the country. it has been designated as the capital since 1907 and is one of the international cities in Africa.

Mombasa, a port city in eastern Kenya, 480 kilometers from Nairobi, the capital of the coastal province, was founded in the 11th century.

Kisumu, located in the lake port of western Kenya, the third largest city, the capital of Nyanza province, is on the northeast shore of Lake Victoria.

Kenya has a total population of 41.8 million (2013), with a population growth rate of 2.7 per cent. There are 42 ethnic groups in the country, including Kikuyu (17%), Lucia (14%), Kalenjin (13%), Luo (10%) and Kangba (10%). In addition, there are a small number of Indians and Palestinians, Arabs and Europeans. [5]

To ensure that only ripe coffee fruits are picked, people must tour the forest about seven times. After they harvest the coffee, they first send the coffee beans to the cooperative cleaning station, where the sun-dried coffee is sent to the cooperative in the form of "parchment coffee beans" (that is, coffee beans covered with endocarp) ("parchment coffee" is the last state of coffee beans before peeling).

The Kenyan government takes the coffee industry very seriously, where it is illegal to cut down or destroy coffee trees. Kenyan coffee buyers are world-class high-quality coffee buyers, and no other country can grow, produce and sell coffee on a continuous basis like Kenya. All coffee beans are first purchased by the Kenya Coffee Commission, where they are identified, graded, and then sold at weekly auctions, where they are no longer graded. The best coffee grade is bean berry coffee (PB), followed by AA++, AA+, AA, AB and so on. The fine coffee is shiny, delicious and slightly alcoholic. Kenyan Coffee has become more famous with the sensation of the Hollywood movie "out of Africa". Karen, the heroine played by Meryl Streep, is a writer and coffee planter. Many people probably remember Karen's yellow-and-white linen dress, the beautiful scenery and the magnificent sunset, and what is even more unforgettable is Karen's dream of having a coffee plantation in Africa.

Kenyan coffee is acidic high-density coffee, its taste is as intriguing as the natural scenery, very fragrant, wine-scented coffee entered Kenya in the 19th century, when Ethiopian coffee drinks were imported to Kenya from southern Yemen. But it was not until the early 20th century that the bourbon was introduced by the St. Austen Mission.

Kenyan coffee is mostly grown at an altitude of 1500 mi 2100 meters and is harvested twice a year. Kenyan industrious people love coffee as much as lovers in love.

Accounting for 55% of Kenya's total coffee production (40% of the number of estates) is run by numerous small operators. Seeing that coffee is absolutely profitable, these small operators continue to increase the need for agronomy and the development of high-quality coffee tree species, thus greatly promoting the development of coffee in Kenya.
