Introduction to the unique and strong flavor and taste of Costa Rican Fire Phoenix Manor Coffee

The topography of Costa Rica is that the coast is surrounded by plains, while the middle is cut off by rugged mountains. The country declared 200 nautical miles in its exclusive economic zone and 12 nautical miles in its territorial sea. The climate belongs to the tropics and subtropics, and some of them are new tropics. [3]

Climate

The climatic conditions in Costa Rica are very different, completely subverting the classification of the four seasons of the year, there are only two seasons, the rainy season from April to December, and the dry season from the end of December to April of the following year, also known as summer. The annual average temperature in San Jose, the capital, ranges from 15 ℃ to 26 ℃, while the temperature in the coastal areas is relatively high, with a night average temperature of 21 ℃ and a daily average temperature of 30 ℃ in the Caribbean.

Natural resources editor

Costa Rica accounts for only 0.03% of the world's land area, but with nearly 4% of the world's species, Costa Rica is one of the countries with the richest biological species in the world. 26% of the land area is a national park or nature reserve, including 11 wetlands, 2 biological reserves and 3 World Natural Heritage sites. The national forest coverage rate is 52%.

Natural resources include iron, manganese, mercury, bauxite, gold and silver, among which the reserves of bauxite, iron and coal reach 150 million tons, 400 million tons and 50 million tons respectively. The recent situation is mainly distributed in the central gold belt area of the northwestern Tilaran Cordillera Mountains. Calcium carbonate is distributed in the northwest and has high taste. The purity of calcium carbonate extracted from limestone can reach 99.5%. Costa Rica attaches great importance to environmental protection and the exploitation of natural resources is strictly restricted.

Oil is completely dependent on imports, mainly from Colombia and other countries, and is monopolized by the National Oil Company (RECOPE), with an average annual import of 3 million tons of crude oil. Since 2012, the national oil company has suspended crude oil refining production due to aging facilities, and all fuel oil has been imported instead. In 2013, Costa Rica imported 19.3 million barrels of oil, with imports of US $2.3 billion, accounting for 5.5 per cent of GDP.

Costa Rican coffee has full particles, ideal acidity and unique strong flavor. Costa Rica's coffee industry, originally controlled by the Costa Rican Coffee Industry Company (ICAFE), has been taken over by the official Coffee Committee (Oficinale Cafe). Among the exported coffee, those products that are considered to be of substandard quality are colored with blue vegetable dyes and then transferred back to China for sale. Coffee consumed domestically (dyed blue or undyed) accounts for about 10% of total production, and local per capita coffee consumption is twice that of Italy or the United States.

This coffee producing place, coffee of all grades and types accounts for 1/3 of the global consumption and occupies a share in the global coffee market.

Although Costa Rica faces several times more natural disasters than other regions, it has enough acreage to make up for it.

There are many kinds of coffee here, but its industrial policy is large and cheap, so there is not much premium coffee, but it is a good choice for mixing other coffees.

One of the most famous is Mountain Costa Rica Coffee, which tastes mellow and neutral. It can be boiled directly or mixed with other kinds of coffee beans to form a mixed coffee. It is also a good choice.

Other kinds of Brazilian coffee, such as Rio and Parana, can be produced in large quantities because they do not require too much care. Although the taste is rough, it is a kind of high-quality and inexpensive coffee, which has its own standards because it is distributed all over the country and varies in quality (NO.2~NO.8 according to the number of sundries, NO.13~NO.19 according to the size of beans, and six grades according to taste). Almost all Arabica varieties are of good quality and stable in price. The most famous one is Costa Rica, which has been a necessity of blended coffee and is familiar to the public since ancient times.

Excellent Costa Rican coffee is called "extra hard beans". This kind of coffee can grow above 1500 meters above sea level. Altitude has always been a problem for coffee growers. The higher the altitude, the better the coffee beans, not only because the higher altitude can increase the acidity of the coffee beans and thus increase the flavor, but also because the night temperature at the higher altitude is lower, which can make the trees grow slowly, thus the flavor of the coffee beans is stronger. In addition, due to the high altitude drop caused by sufficient rainfall, it is very beneficial to the growth of coffee trees.

Costa Rican coffee is full of Arabica beans, washed with water, its style is bright, fragrant, clear as wind chimes swaying in the breeze, mild acidity and sweetness. Because of the sweetness, even if the coffee gets cold, it tastes very good, which is a major feature of Costa Rican coffee. Therefore, it is suggested that when you taste Costa Rican coffee, you should only add a small amount of sugar and cream, so that you can enjoy its girlish flavor.
