The market for Puerto Rican coffee:

Today, Puerto Rican gourmet coffee has been exported to the United States, France and Japan. Coffee in this country is generally carefully cultivated with pure flavor, aroma and heavy granules, among which the best is among the world's famous brands. Relevant U.S. government staff, such as FDA and USDA, will also be present when the goods are submitted, and their job is to monitor producers' compliance with federal regulations. There are also some staff from the local evaluation board, who take 1 bag out of every 50 bags as samples and use international gauges to evaluate their quality.

Puerto Rico's new farm coffee is a mild, supple and well-balanced island bean with a charming single malt flavor, extremely sweet when sipped in a cup, and medium-roasted creamy and greasy texture that is often suitable for Puerto Rico island beans.

The whole history of coffee in the Caribbean has a lot to do with Spanish reclamation. Coffee was not that important in the 18th century. The main job was to grow sugar-producing crops in fertile valleys. In the early 19th century (1800), the residents of Corsica in the French Mediterranean moved to Puerto Rico because the valleys had been occupied by Spanish immigrants. So they chose to settle in the southwest mountain area of the island, mostly near the city of Yuko. because of their efforts and determination, coffee cultivation brought them a good return. They dominated the coffee industry on the island in the 1860s. At that time, Puerto Rico's coffee bean production ranked sixth in the world, and the coffee trees planted by Corsican immigrants on the highlands were regarded as selected. The origin of Yauco Selecto coffee beans is mainly traced back to this period, but two severe hurricanes hit Puerto Rico in 1898. These two hurricanes destroyed the local coffee industry, and farmers had to wait two years to get the crops back to normal. During this period, the United States was very interested in Puerto Rico's sugar production, and European countries no longer imposed tariffs on Puerto Rico coffee beans as crops produced in their colonies. Dealt a heavy blow to Puerto Rican coffee.

The Caribbean Sea is a warm, romantic and mysterious sea, and a lot of good coffee is also around this ring sea, such as the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, the Dominica, the Crystal Mountains of Cuba, Yuko of Puerto Rico and so on. These are the most famous rare and expensive coffee in the world. These island beans give people a light milky aroma and elegant floral aroma, acidity and meticulous softness. Although it is still difficult to avoid the problem of easy water loss of coffee caused by the muggy climate of the island, the overall texture is the first-grade beans of coffee. Puerto Rico coffee is not easy to buy on the market mainly because the output is less and mostly exported to Europe. Coupled with the adverse effects of severe weather hurricanes on coffee crops, there will be no coffee to buy for the whole year.

In 1736, coffee trees were introduced from Martinique to PuertoRico. Most of the early coffee was grown by immigrants from Corsica. Coffee farms were once prosperous in the 19th century, but the rise of sugarcane and crop farming and the impact of hurricanes and wars made the coffee industry lag behind and is now recovering.

The origin of coffee in Puerto Rico:

The best coffee in Puerto Rico is YaucoSelecto, which means "Selecto". Grand Larez and Yaoke coffee (GrandLares-Yauco) are produced in the southwest of the island, while Larez coffee is produced in the south-central part of the island. Yaocote's choice of coffee, which is grown only on three farms in the southwest of the island, is fragrant and has a long aftertaste. This kind of coffee is very expensive and its flavor is comparable to that of any other coffee variety in the world. In the Yauco area, the coffee is owned and operated by local planters. The mountain climate here is mild, the plants have a long mature period (from October to February), and the soil is of high quality clay. Some old varieties of Arabica coffee beans are grown here, although the yield is lower than other varieties, but generally of high quality. People here have been using an ecological and intensive planting method, using only some low-toxic fertilizers and chemicals, and taking mixed crop planting measures to make the soil more fertile. When it comes time to pick coffee beans, people walk through the coffee trees, picking only fully ripe coffee beans, and then wash them in a roller device for 48 hours. Yaocote chose coffee beans to be preserved with shells before they were shipped and shipped, and the skins were not removed until the order was shipped to ensure the best freshness of the coffee.
