Introduction to the Flavor and Taste characteristics of Dominica Coffee varieties

The Dominican Republic is a popular country for travelers. It lives next to Haiti on the island of Hispaniola in the West Indies, Dominica in the west and Haiti in the east. The world's whitest and softest white sand, cool sea breeze from the Atlantic and Caribbean and warm sunshine from the tropics make it a holiday paradise on a par with Maldives and Hawaii. It is the second European colony in the American continent after Greenland. It currently has the oldest Catholic churches, universities, roads and bunkers in America, and its capital, Santo Domingo, is also the oldest city and capital in the Americas.

The Dominican Republic has also experienced a history of unrest and poverty, and now the country has implemented democratic elections and entered a period of stable development, but it has not yet formally established diplomatic relations with China, but has maintained so-called "diplomatic relations" with Taiwan. It seems that this has nothing to do with coffee, but in fact, it still has an impact. The exchanges between the two countries that have not established diplomatic relations are subject to many restrictions in all aspects, of course, it will also affect our coffee trade. Dominican coffee is mainly exported to the United States and a small number of European countries because of its superior quality, which is rarely seen in our Chinese mainland.

Turning to the introduction of Dominican coffee, the most distinctive features are fresh and elegant, full of particles, excellent acidity and pleasant flavor (two colleagues agree with this). Such flavor characteristics are not only related to varieties and soil quality, but also closely related to the picking and handling of raw beans. Coffee in Dominica is selected by the manual method with the highest cost, and workers mainly consider the fullness of coffee granules and the uniformity of coffee granules. According to these conditions, the coffee beans with the fullest and most uniform grains can represent the best quality in Dominica. The finest coffee. And only choose the washing treatment method to ensure the high quality and stability of coffee beans. The coffee beans treated with water washing method taste cleaner and exude a touch of pure and soft fragrance, which can make people feel a faint fruity aroma and a winding aftertaste. Smooth and smooth Dominican coffee is also slightly different in taste according to the altitude of the planting region, and the taste of the highland is slightly sour, but the taste is rich. The lowland is less sour and tastes smoother. The high-quality coffee beans produced by some Dominican estates have a rich aroma, mellow taste and moderately bright sour taste, and are often compared with those from Puerto Rico or Jamaica. In the early 18th century, coffee was introduced to Domiga from Martinique, and fine coffee was produced in the north represented by Hibao and in the south, including Okayabani Santo Domingo. Among them, the coffee produced by Santo Domingo and Barney, which is almost synonymous with domiga coffee, is a world-famous high-quality coffee. Santo Domingo coffee is characterized by freshness, elegance, fullness, excellent acidity and pleasant aroma, so it is worth it. The selection of Dominican coffee is usually done manually. The main basis for selection is according to the fullness of coffee particles, whether it is uniform, and then grade it. Generally speaking, coffee with full and uniform grains is easier to preserve. Only the fullest and most evenly grained coffee beans can be roasted to represent the best and finest coffee in the country.

Unlike coffee produced in Haiti, most of the coffee grown in the Dominican Republic has been washed, which is a symbol of high quality. Miniga Coffee uses a washing method to treat coffee beans, so that the quality of treated coffee beans is more guaranteed. The coffee beans treated by washing method retain more original flavor than the drying method, and the aroma is pure and soft.

Carefully selected in this way, the high-quality coffee of Dominica exudes a faint aroma and gives people a faint fruity aroma with a lingering finish and a smooth and smooth finish.
