Introduction to the characteristics of flavor varieties in Bolivian coffee manor with high quality and rich sour taste

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. The construction of the Bolivian state with progressive community socialism (that is, Indian socialism) as the basic value concept began.

On 25 January 2009, the 16th Constitution in the history of the Republic of Bolivia, which was also the first referendum, was adopted by 61.8% of the votes in favour.

On March 26, 2009, Morales signed a supreme decree declaring that the original name of the country would be changed from "Rep ú blica deBolivia" to "Plurinational State of Bolivia" (El Estado Plurinacional deBolivia). Bolivia is a Plurinational State with mainly indigenous peoples, including Indians of all ethnic groups; the Mestizo: European and African immigrants and indigenous peoples.

Mixed-race offspring (about 30% of the Bolivian population) and European and African immigrants (about 15% of the total population). According to statistics, there are 37 indigenous ethnic groups in Bolivia, of which Quechua and Ayimala have the largest population, 1.558 million and 1.279 million respectively, and Guaran 78000 has an oval shape in the middle of the Bolivian national emblem.

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.

Bolivia is 1/3 of the Andean mountains, rugged terrain, mainly road transport, accounting for more than 85% of transportation. The main railway and road networks are concentrated in the west, and remote areas rely on air communication. But road coverage is the lowest in South America. And there is also the Ronggas Highway, the world's first insurance road known as the "road of death". There is no developed economy here, and it is one of the poorest countries in South America. However, with its beautiful lake scenery and unique scenery of the Andes, the Uyuni Salt Lake, known as the Mirror of the Sky, is a wonder of the world.

We know that 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.
