Introduction to the flavor and taste characteristics of coffee from La Tisa Manor in Guatemala

Between 1950 and 1954, the ruling president Jacobo Abens implemented land reform, when big landlords, who accounted for 2 per cent of the country's population, owned about 70 per cent of the country's arable land. Arbens wrote a check for land reform, promising to buy the land held by the big landlords and redistribute it to small farmers. Arbens won the election, and the land reform plan was carried out immediately. Landlords who own more than 223 acres of land will be expropriated as long as there is land not used for production. In the end, an average of 4300 acres of land was expropriated from 1059 farms, and about 100, 000 farmers were given ownership of the land. [7]

Inter-American Railway and the only seaport in Guatemala. Driven by the United Fruit Company, the US Ministry of Foreign Affairs began a propaganda war against Guatemala to crack down on the Arbens regime in the name of anti-communism. The CIA began an operation called Operation PBSUCCESS in cooperation with the opposition among Guatemalan soldiers. In 1982, leftist guerrillas were merged to form the National Revolutionary Alliance of Guatemala, and armed struggle spread throughout the country. Farmers dissatisfied with the overthrow of the Arbens regime organized a guerrilla group in which more than 100,000 people were killed and millions displaced. In September 1982, the persecution of the local Mayans by the Guatemalan army was close to genocide, and more than 9000 Mayans were killed. Since 1983, persecution on the part of the Government of Guatemala began to decrease and the country began to democratize again. However, the disparity between the rich and the poor has not been solved, and only a small number of people who account for 1% own more than 60% of the arable land and wealth. In 1985, Guatemala reorganized the general election. Guatemala is located in the tropics. The northern and eastern coastal plains have a tropical rain forest climate, while the southern mountains have a subtropical climate. The year is divided into two dry and wet seasons, with the wet season from May to October and the dry season from November to April of the following year. The narrow and fertile flatlands on the Pacific side of Guatemala have a tropical climate. The central plateau is also the cultural center of Guatemala, where temperatures are mild all year round at an altitude of 1300 to 1800 meters, with daily temperatures between 18 and 28 ℃, and higher levels tend to be colder in January and February. The annual precipitation is 2000-3000 mm in the northeast and 500-1000 mm in the south. There are several lakes in Guatemala, the largest of which is Lake Isawar in the province of Isawar and the deepest lake is Lake Attilan in the province of Solola. The main rivers that flow through Guatemala are the Motagua River, the Usuma Xinda River, the Chikso River and the Shaston River. The Chickso River is the source of the Ursuma Xinda River. The national bird of Guatemala is the Gechal bird (Phoenix-tailed green cuckoo). The Guatemalan people regard the Gechal bird as a symbol of love, freedom, patriotism and friendship, and have the laudatory name of "bird of freedom". The Gechar bird likes to live in pairs and is inseparable, so it is also a symbol of love. It has been officially declared as the national bird by the government of Guatemala. It is used as a symbol on the national flag, national emblem and coins, and the capture of Gechal birds is prohibited by law.

Guatemalan coffee beans are mostly cultivated in high-altitude volcanic soils belonging to the most advanced Arabica (Arabica) variety. Due to the long ripening period, the beans are medium and dense (Guatemalan coffee beans are graded not on the basis of particle size, but on the basis of shortcomings), and the bean color is dark turquoise. The unique sour taste of fragrance, mellow, sweetness and freshness is characterized by the aroma and taste of coffee beans hidden in its sour taste. Therefore, coffee beans with this characteristic can be called high-quality coffee beans. The name of the product is suitable for the taste characteristics of baking degree.

If a person's wrinkles depict a person's path, then the smell of coffee remembers the origin of a cup of coffee: about its hometown, the time of harvest, the way it is roasted and ground, that is, the lifetime journey of coffee. Guatemala's fertile volcanic soil gives birth to a unique flavor of boutique coffee beans: Antigua coffee. The charm of Antigua lies in its balanced and refreshing acidity, rich spice and unique smoky taste, as if to tell us about the desolate history of Antigua in Guatemala.

The aroma of coffee liberates all forms, hearts and national boundaries. Through coffee, the mood leaves the country at any time and lands in a strange country half a world away. Even at the end of the world, you can share a mood. Antigua was the capital of the Spanish colonial period in 1543. Although this emerald-like valley has been surrounded by active volcanoes in all directions, layered, deliberately waiting and full of dangers since ancient times, its vastness, vastness and fertility still tempted Spaniards to build a capital in the precarious cliff valley.

The volcano once destroyed the once-prosperous capital in an instant, robbing it of all its prosperity and beauty overnight. After this subversive mountain city, the splendor has disappeared for more than 200 years, and Antigua has never swaggered again. After being dull, Antigua is now run by the last remaining Indians. These hardworking Indians became later coffee producers. They not only discovered the rich and attractive unique smell of Antigua coffee, but also brought it to people all over the world. Today, Antigua coffee enjoys a reputation as the best quality coffee in the world and is praised by coffee connoisseurs as the best and most distinctive coffee in the world.
