Brazilian Coffee Flavors Brazilian Coffee Features Brazilian Coffee Beans

Brazilian coffee refers to coffee produced in Brazil. There are many types of Brazilian coffee, and like other Arabica coffees, Brazilian coffee is called "Brazils" to distinguish it from "Milds" coffee. The vast majority of Brazilian coffee is unwashed and sun-dried, and is classified according to the state of origin and port of shipment. Brazil has 21 states, 17 states produce coffee, but four of them produce the most, accounting for 98% of Brazil's total production: Parana, Sao Paulo, Minas Gerais and EspiritoSanto. Parana in the south produces the most, accounting for 50% of the total.

Low-acidity, medium-roast coffee beans from the coffee center of the world.

Brazil has been figuratively compared to the coffee world's "giants" and "kings." There are about 3.97 billion coffee trees, and small farmers now grow 75 percent of Brazil's coffee. Brazil has twice or even three times as many coffee producers as Colombia, which is the world's second-largest coffee producer.

Brazil's economy is less dependent on coffee than it used to be, with coffee accounting for only 8 - 10% of GDP. Before World War II, Brazil accounted for 50% or more of the world's coffee production, and now it is close to 30%, but the country's influence on coffee worldwide, especially on coffee prices, is significant. For example, two frosts in 1994 caused a sharp rise in global coffee prices.

Coffee production has gradually become a science since the introduction of coffee trees from Guyane française in 1720. Before 1990, the Brazilian government strictly controlled the coffee industry, with both severe interference and price protection measures, and the state has always implemented minimum price protection measures for farmers, resulting in coffee overproduction. At one point before World War II, there were 78 million bags left in stock, which had to be burned or thrown into water.

Since 1990, when the free market opened up, the former Brazilian Coffee Authority (IBC) has been replaced by a non-investment administrative body of the state, the National Economic Association, which pursues a policy of non-interference and allows producers to negotiate directly with exporters. The activities of exporters are monitored by government legislation and legal exporters are registered by the relevant authorities.

Although coffee is diverse, Brazilian coffee is suitable for the taste of the masses. For example: coffee produced in northern coastal areas has a typical iodine taste, reminiscent of the sea after drinking. This coffee is exported to North America, the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Another coffee that is interesting and worth pursuing is rinsed Bahia coffee. This coffee is not easy to find, because Brazil is the world's largest coffee consumer after the United States, and many of the best coffees can only be found in its domestic market.

In Brazil, the largest crop is Robett coffee. This coffee is sold in supermarkets. Brazilian Roscoff coffee, sold under the name Conillon, accounts for 15 percent of total production.

Old bourbon coffee is grown on estates in Cerrado district, Minas Greais state, in southeastern Brazil. Old bourbon coffee grown on these estates, such as Capin Branco and Vista Allegre, is also sold in the market. Although they come from the same region, these coffees have their own characteristics. Capin Blanco is softer than Vista Allegra, which is strong and dark and has lower acidity. However, like all Brazilian coffees, they are best served fresh because the older they are, the stronger the acidity. These coffee growers have organized themselves into the Speciality Coffee Association of Brazil.

Brazil, the largest producer of coffee, accounts for one-third of global consumption of all grades and varieties, and has a place in the global coffee market. Although Brazil faces many times more natural disasters than other regions, its arable area is enough to compensate.

There are many kinds of coffee here, but its industrial policy is large and cheap, so there are not many excellent coffee, but it is a good choice to mix other coffees.

One of the most famous is Sandos coffee, its taste is mellow, neutral, it can be boiled directly, or mixed with other types of coffee beans blend coffee, is also a good choice.

Other types of Brazilian coffee, such as Rio, Parana, etc., can be produced in large quantities without too much care. Although the taste is rough, it is a kind of inexpensive coffee. Due to its distribution throughout Brazil, the solid quality varies, and there are its own standards (NO.2~NO.8 according to the number of impurities, NO.13~NO.19 according to the size of beans, divided into six grades according to taste). Almost all Arabica varieties are of good quality and stable prices, the most famous being "Santos de Brazil", which has been a necessity of blended coffee since ancient times and is familiar to the public. Recently, the evaluation of "Tolma Cup" is also very high.
