The national emblem is an equilateral triangle whose three yellow lines represent equality, truth and justice respectively. Five volcanoes rise between the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, symbolizing the five countries in Central America. The "pole of freedom" and the red "cap of freedom" stand high on the top of the mountain, emitting the light of freedom and liberation. In the golden light, September 15, 1821 is the day of El Salvador's independence, and the rainbow in the sky overflows with joy and hope. Five Central American federal flags revolve around the national emblem, expressing El Salvador's desire to reorganize the federation. At the bottom is a yellow ribbon, which says "God, Unity and Freedom" in Spanish. Green laurel branches and leaves surround the periphery of the triangle, making the national emblem round. The outermost golden Spanish reads the name "El Salvador, Central American Republic of El Salvador, whose domestic topography is dominated by mountains, plateaus and volcanoes, known as the" country of volcanoes ". The Santa Ana active volcano in the country is 2385 meters above sea level, making it the country's highest peak. The flag of El Salvador, a narrow coastal plain in the north of the country and a narrow coastal plain in the south, was opened in 1822, withdrawn in 1865, restored in 1912, and restored in 1972.

The Constitution of # was officially established as the national flag. The national flag is rectangular, with a ratio of length to width of 335 to 189. From top to bottom, the flag is connected by three parallel equal horizontal rectangles of blue, white and blue, and the central part of the white part is painted with the national emblem. Because El Salvador used to be a member of the former Central American Federation, its national flag is the same color as the original Central American Federal Flag.

Salvadoran Coffee-Coffee Origin

In the early 1990s, guerrilla warfare greatly damaged the country's national economy, reducing coffee production from 3.5 million bags in the early 1970s to 2.5 million bags in 1990-1991. The eastern part of the country was most affected by guerrilla warfare, and many farmers and workers were forced to leave the manor. The shortage of funds has led to a sharp drop in coffee production, from 1200 kg per hectare in the past to less than 900kg per hectare today.

In addition, the government imposed an additional 15% tariff on exported coffee in 1986, that is, an additional 15% in addition to the existing 30% tax. Taxes, together with unfavorable exchange rates, have greatly reduced the export of coffee and the quality of coffee.

The government finally realized the great role of coffee in the national economy, such as solving employment, earning foreign exchange and developing agricultural production, so it privatized some coffee export industries in 1990, hoping to increase the income rate of coffee in the export market.

Today, this coffee accounts for 40% of the country's exports. The best quality coffee is exported from January to March, and 35% of the extra hard beans are exported to Germany. Don't underestimate El Salvador's coffee production. In its heyday, it was once the fourth largest coffee producer in the world, but decades of civil war almost dragged down the coffee industry. fortunately, the war has stopped in recent years, and the coffee industry has come back to life. The only benefit that the civil war brought to the Salvadoran country was that the farmers' fields were barren and failed to catch up with the most popular Katimo exposure train in the past two decades, thus preserving the ancient varieties of bourbon and Tibica, that is to say, El Salvador still uses the most traditional shade planting, which is of positive significance to the aroma of coffee. In 2005, the Salvadoran mixed-race Pacamara boasted in coe, which confused many international cup testers and did not know how to grade it. It was never expected that this hybrid bean not only broke the mellow boundaries of coffee, but also expanded the visibility of Salvadoran coffee.

El Salvador boutique coffee is concentrated in the volcanic rock producing areas of Santa Ana in the west and Charantanan fruit in the northwest. In recent years, the top 10 cup tests are almost entirely from these two producing areas, with an altitude of about 9-1500 meters, mainly bourbon (68%). Followed by Pacas (29%), mixed-race Pakamara, Dulaai and Kaddura accounted for only 3%.

The coffee harvest lasts from November to March. The fresh fruit of coffee is picked by hand.

On the whole, Salvadoran coffee inherits the mild quality of Sino-American coffee, which is soft, slightly sour and has beautiful sweetness. At the same time, it also has its own characteristics: the aromatic taste is slightly sour and very soft; it is pure and has no miscellaneous flavor, and the taste balance is excellent; the smooth feeling like cream chocolate is impressive; the dense feeling of coffee in the mouth gives the coffee a deep taste and a long finish.
