Flavor description of Ethiopian Coffee introduction to planting Environment

Large-scale coffee-growing villages 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 begins in November or December every year.

A brief introduction to the flavor of coffee

Ethiopia has a unique flavor that is different from other flavors and provides customers all over the world with a wide range of taste choices.

In the highlands of southwestern Ethiopia, the Kaffa, Sheka, Gera, Limu and Yayu Senri coffee ecosystems are considered the hometown of Arabica coffee. These forest ecosystems also have a variety of medicinal plants, wild animals and endangered species.

The highlands of western Ethiopia have given birth to new varieties of coffee that are resistant to fruit disease or leaf rust. Ethiopia has many world-famous types of coffee. Some of the main types of coffee are famous for their unique aroma and flavor, including the following: the Ethiopian coffee market is regulated by the Ethiopian Coffee and Tea products Administration. There are two auction centers in the country, one in the capital Addis Ababa (Addis Ababa) and the other in Dire Dawa in eastern Ethiopia. Coffee growers wash fresh fruits or take them to private coffee processing plants or cooperative coffee washing stations. Washed and dried coffee beans are transported to a central store in Addis Ababa, the capital, where they are fully inspected and soaked, rated according to poor quality and auctioned. Coffee from state-owned farms has to follow the same procedure after being processed by the farm. Buyers who participate in the auction will carefully observe the coffee beans and their soaking proof before bidding. The bidding takes the form of the buyer shouting out the price.

Export of Ethiopian coffee

Ethiopia exports 80% of its natural or sun-cured coffee beans and 15% of its wet-processed coffee beans every year. Ethiopia has about 2.5% of the global coffee market. Ethiopia's coffee is exported to all parts of the world, and Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia and the United States are Ethiopia's four major coffee exporters. On average, Ethiopia exports about 109000 tons of coffee (equivalent to 1.8 million bags of 60 kg coffee) to all parts of the world each year.
