Introduction to the method of describing the characteristics of taste and flavor of Salvadoran coffee varieties

In January 1932, local elections began, and a large number of Communist Party candidates were elected, but they were not recognized by the government; the Communist Party of El Salvador decided to launch an uprising on the 22nd, but Martinez discovered it and immediately ordered the arrest of Communist Party leader Farah Bendo Marty. The leaderless farmers, armed with machetes, launched the uprising as scheduled, but failed under the crackdown by government forces, which immediately retaliated and slaughtered more than 30,000 rebellious farmers.

For 13 years after 1932, El Salvador was ruled by Martinez.

On May 19, 1934, El Salvador announced the establishment of diplomatic relations with Manchukuo, becoming the second country after Japan to recognize the regime.

After the outbreak of the Pacific War in 1941, El Salvador joined the anti-axis camp of Britain, the United States and other countries.

In April 1944, intellectuals and students launched a general strike because of economic paralysis.

In May 1945, Martinez stepped down, went into exile in Guatemala and then went to live in Honduras.

When the reformist revolutionary junta came to power in 1979, both the far right and the far left were dissatisfied with the government, and the conflict broke out and turned into a civil war.

In 1980, a formal civil war broke out in El Salvador, confronting the United States-backed government and the Cuban-backed Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front.

On January 16, 1992, the Marty Front signed a "peace agreement" with the government, ending the 12-year civil war in El Salvador.

In March 2014, El Salvador held the second round of presidential election. Vice President Salvador Sanchez Salon, candidate of the ruling Marty Front, won with 50.11% of the vote and was sworn in on June 1 for a five-year term.

Savanna climate. The plain area belongs to the tropical rain forest climate and the mountain area belongs to the subtropical forest climate. The average annual temperature is 25-28 ℃. The annual precipitation is more than 1800 mm in mountain areas and about 1000 mm in coastal areas. The rainy season is from May to October.

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.
