Introduction to the characteristics of coffee flavor and taste of washed snow vein manor in Bolivia

On December 18, 2005, the presidential election was held. Aymara Indian, Evo Morales, leader of the Bolivian socialist movement, won the election with 53.75% of the vote and took office on January 22, 2006. He became the country's first Native American president and Bolivia's first left-wing president. Bolivia began to build a legal capital based on progressive community socialism (that is, Indian socialism). The seat of the Supreme Court, with a population of 284000, is 2790 meters above sea level. Founded in 1538, the city was formerly known as Chuquisaka. In 1809, the first uprising against Spanish rule broke out in South America. Bolivia declared its independence here in 1825 and became the capital in 1826. In 1839, it was renamed Sucre in honor of the second president of Bolivia, General Antonio Jos é Sucre. In 1898, the central government, presidential palace and parliamentary hall were moved to Russ, and the Supreme Court stayed in Sucre. Sucre has been listed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) on the list of human cultural heritage. The emblem of Bolivia is oval in the middle.

There are patterns of sun, mountain peak, bread tree, camel sheep and grain on the round surface. There are ten five-pointed stars in the lower half of the circle, representing the nine provinces that make up Bolivia and the coastal provinces seized by Chile; the top half is written "Bolivia" in Spanish. Three national flags are hung on each side of the oval; behind them are crossed sticks and weapons, symbolizing authority; and on the left, there is a "cap of freedom" at the top of the bar. At the top of the oval is a large vulture called the Condor, symbolizing strength and freedom. The eagle is decorated with laurel twigs and olive branches, representing the people's pride in national freedom and their desire to live in harmony with the people of other countries.

Arabica coffee cannot be grown in cold places above 2000 meters above sea level. if the altitude is too high, coffee trees will frost because the temperature is too low. So Bolivian coffee is mainly grown in the Yungas region northeast of La Paz. It borders the Amazon basin and is about 1500-2500 meters above sea level with an average annual temperature of about 10-15 ℃. Therefore, it ensures the suitable temperature for the growth of coffee and protects the coffee plant from frost. In addition, the Bolivian coffee growing area has a distinct dry and wet season and fertile soil, which is a paradise for the development of boutique coffee. Bolivian coffee is usually picked by hand and is mostly processed by washing.

The early Bolivian coffee was of low quality and the market was very poor. Usually the picked coffee fruit is bumped all the way to the processing plant after a simple peeling treatment. Due to the imperfect infrastructure, the traffic is underdeveloped. Coffee farmers have to overcome the rugged mountain road and transport the beans to the higher altitude area of La Paz for washing. If the coffee fruit is not delivered to the processing plant in time, it is easy to ferment and rot on the wet mountain road. As a result, the coffee of good quality has been destroyed.

Bolivia has made a lot of efforts to improve the quality of coffee, stimulate the enthusiasm of coffee farmers and make coffee farmers have a deeper understanding of fine coffee. After the introduction of the COE competition, in the first COE competition held in 2004, there were 13 boutique bean cups with a total score of more than 84 points, and the champion bean score was as high as 90.44 points. In addition, in order to solve the problem of untimely post-processing, a washing treatment plant has also been built in Yanggas area. Let the freshly picked coffee be post-processed as soon as possible to prevent the decline in quality caused by transportation. Coffee farmers are also constantly refining their planting techniques. In short, Bolivia has finally completed a magnificent turn in quality through its own efforts in all aspects.
