Introduction to the flavor and taste characteristics of Ethiopian coffee with unique high-quality coffee

In September 1974, a group of young and strong officers formed the "Coordination Committee of the Army, Police and Local Forces" (that is, DERGUE, meaning SHADOW, and later generally referred to the junta and Mengistu regime) to launch a military coup, overthrew the Haier Selassie government, and announced the end of monarchy and the establishment of a "interim junta." In November, the "interim military government" was changed to "interim military Administrative Council". In December, the interim military Administrative Council declared Ethiopia a "socialist country" with the nationalization of land, financial and financial institutions and industry. In March 1988, the rebel "Eritrean people's Liberation Front" (EPLF) and the "Tigre people's Liberation Front" (TPLF) launched attacks on government forces and a large-scale civil war broke out. In 1989, the Eritrean people's Liberation Front occupied most of Eritrea. On May 28, 1991, the EGF troops, mainly the Tigre people's Liberation Front, entered Addis Ababa and the Mengistu regime announced the disintegration of Ethiopia, located between 6-9 degrees north latitude and 34-40 degrees east longitude, in the center of the Horn of Africa, is a landlocked country. It is bordered by Djibouti and Somalia in the east, Sudan in the northwest, Eritrea in the north and Kenya in the south. Ethiopia is located in the tropics, but the temperature is uneven due to the large difference in latitude span and altitude. The heavy rainy season is from June to September, the dry season is from October to January, and the light rainy season is from February to May. Due to uneven rainfall in different seasons and regions, local drought is easy to occur. The temperature ranges from 9.7 ℃ to 25.5 ℃. The average annual temperature is 16 ℃.

A large amount of coffee production (95%) is done by small shareholders, with an average yield of 561 kg per hectare. For centuries, minority holders of Ethiopian coffee farms have been producing a variety of high-quality types of coffee. The secret to producing high-quality coffee is that coffee growers have developed a coffee culture in a suitable environment through generations of repeated learning about the coffee growing process, which mainly includes farming methods using natural fertilizers, picking the reddest and fully ripe fruits and processing the fruits in a clean environment. The differences in the quality, natural characteristics and types of Ethiopian coffee all stem from differences in "altitude", "region", "location" and even land types. Ethiopian coffee beans are unique due to their natural characteristics, including "size", "shape", "acidity", "quality", "flavor" and "flavor". These characteristics give Ethiopian coffee a unique natural quality, usually, Ethiopia is always used as a "coffee supermarket" for customers to choose the kind of coffee they like. Villages that grow coffee on a large scale account for about 35% of the country's total coffee production. These coffee farms, which use a multi-tier coffee planting system, are carefully cared for. Coffee farmers do not use chemical fertilizers, but use fallen leaves and animal and plant debris to increase soil nutrition. In addition to coffee, farmers also frequently grow non-coffee crops. Even manor coffee (coffee produced by state-owned farms), which accounts for 5% of the country's total coffee production, shows the characteristics of forest coffee production.

Located in the most advantaged natural conditions, Ethiopia produces unique high-quality coffee every year. Ethiopia's coffee growing cycle brings the joy of harvest to the country every year. Beautiful white coffee flowers will bloom and bear fruit every year from March to April. Only the reddest and ripe fruits are selected as coffee ingredients between September and about December. The export of new coffee starts in November or December every year.
