Introduction to the characteristics of Kenya Jinchu Coffee Flavor 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 officially operate after the 2013 election in Mombasa, a port city in eastern Kenya, 480 kilometers from Nairobi, the coastal provincial capital, built in the 11th century.

The east branch cuts the plateau north and south, dividing the highland into east and west parts. The bottom of the Great Rift Valley is 450 miles below the plateau and 100 kilometers wide, with lakes of varying depths and many volcanoes standing. The north is desert and semi-desert, accounting for about 56% of the country's total area. Mount Kenya in the central highlands is 5199 meters above sea level, the highest peak, the second highest in Africa, and the summit is covered with snow all the year round. Wagagai extinct volcano 4321 meters above sea level Kenya mineral deposits are mainly soda ash, salt, fluorite, limestone, barite, gold, silver, copper, aluminum, zinc, niobium and thorium, except soda ash and fluorite, most mineral deposits have not yet been developed. The main minerals are barite near Tamota in the southeast, niobium in the Mlima Mountains and gold from Kakamaga and Makajie in the southwest. Kyrgyzstan is one of the largest diatomite mines in the world. Lake Magadi is rich in natural alkali and salt.

Some buyers, especially Japanese businessmen, have expressed dissatisfaction with the Kenyan coffee industry system. Some businessmen say that the quality of coffee in the country has declined, and point out that buying directly from farmers may be a way to improve the quality. But in any case, Kenya's detailed rules and regulations and sound procedures are a model worth learning from for all coffee-producing countries. It is fragrant, full-bodied, fruity and has a rich and perfect taste. Kenyan coffee has a wonderful fruit flavor, tastes like BlackBerry and grapefruit, and is a favorite of many coffee gluttons. This coffee has an excellent medium purity, crisp and refreshing taste. It has a fresh flavor and is most suitable for drinking iced coffee in summer. When tasting this coffee, if it is paired with sour fruits such as grapefruit, it will certainly give me the best coffee experience. "not much like coffee, but a bit like fruit tea" is the common feeling of many people about this kind of shallow roasted Kenyan coffee. In addition to having obvious and charming fruit acidity, Kenyan coffee is mostly from small coffee farmers, planted in a variety of different environments, encounter different climate and rainfall every year, and bring a variety of distinct and unique personalities. Take the AAPlus grade "KenyaAA+Samburu" as an example, the Samburu in 2001 has a strong aroma of black plum, the acidity is not high, and the taste is strong. The newly harvested Samburu in the winter of 2002 presents a completely different flavor, mulberry and green plum, with a little Nanyang spice (Spicy) flavor, after drinking, the aftertaste has the sweetness of green tea, the acidity is slightly higher than the year before, the taste is still strong. The common Kenyan taste is not strong, but it has a bright fruit flavor, some spicy, some red wine, there are two types of Kenyan coffee farms, one is a large plantation covering an area of more than five acres, but the average elevation is low. As far as Kenyan coffee is concerned, the coffee beans of the large farms are of medium quality. The best Kenyan beans come from small farms, most of which are located in the foothills or volcanic slopes above 5,000 to 6,000 feet. Each small farmer has a capacity of only 20 to 70 bags per season and cannot afford to invest in expensive washing plants, but small farmers are very United. Hundreds or thousands of households are gathered to set up a cooperative farm, which is funded by the government to build a washing treatment plant, and the coffee fruits picked by small farmers are sent to the cooperative farm for unified processing. First remove the half-ripe or rotten fruit, then peel, ferment, decompose the flesh, remove the coffee beans, then dry and polish, the whole process is supervised by the official Coffee Administration, which ensures the quality of Kenyan coffee. The washing and processing technology and high quality control of Kenyan beans have always been the example of bean-producing countries who only know how to brew, but do not know how to taste coffee, so the original delicacy may become tasteless. Some people taste coffee with the taste of the tongue, while others enjoy the aromatic mellow in the mouth. in addition, it depends on the condition of the body and the atmosphere around the coffee. In a word, tasting coffee is a very delicate thing.

When you drink coffee in a coffee shop, you sometimes drink almost half-cold coffee. No matter how good the coffee beans are and how good the brewing skills are, you will lose your appetite for coffee. Drinking while it is hot is a necessary condition for tasting delicious coffee, even on a hot summer day. When the coffee is cold, the flavor will decrease, so when brewing the coffee, in order not to reduce the taste of the coffee, soak the coffee cup in boiling water in advance. The appropriate temperature for coffee is 83 degrees Celsius at the moment of brewing, 80 degrees Celsius when pouring into the cup, and 61-62 degrees into the mouth.
