Introduction to the characteristics of flavor description of Costa Rican Tarazhu coffee beans

Tarasu, located in the south of the country's capital, SanJos é, is one of the country's most valued coffee growers. LaMinitaTarrazu coffee is a famous local product, but its production is limited, about 72600 kilograms a year. It is grown on a piece of land called LaMinita, which is owned by nearly three generations of the McAlpine family in the UK. In fact, this land can produce more than 450 tons of coffee a year. However, the cultivation of Tarasu Latin American coffee does not use artificial fertilizers or insecticides, and its harvest and selection are all done by hand, in order to avoid the damage to coffee beans caused by air spray selection to some extent.

All the coffee trees planted in Costa Rica are Arabica coffee trees. through improvement, the quality of coffee beans is better and more stable. in order to facilitate picking, coffee trees are kept at a height of about 2 meters through continuous pruning. The coffee that people eat is the taste of the seeds in the fruit that are brewed in water. After picking raw coffee beans, you must remove the peel, pulp, seed film and sun exposure before the seeds (that is, coffee beans) can be roasted. Part of the process can be replaced by machines, and the speed of coffee production increases a lot. However, there is no machine to do coffee picking, so you must use manual labor. Excellent Costa Rican coffee is called "extra hard beans". This kind of coffee can grow above 1500 meters above sea level. Altitude has always been a problem for coffee growers. The higher the altitude, the better the coffee beans, not only because the higher altitude can increase the acidity of the coffee beans and thus increase the flavor, but also because the night temperature at the higher altitude is lower, which can make the trees grow slowly, thus the flavor of the coffee beans is stronger. In addition, due to the high altitude drop caused by sufficient rainfall, it is very beneficial to the growth of coffee trees.

Costa Rican coffee is full of Arabica beans, washed with water, its style is bright, fragrant, clear as wind chimes swaying in the breeze, mild acidity and sweetness. Because of the sweetness, even if the coffee gets cold, it tastes very good, which is a major feature of Costa Rican coffee. Therefore, it is recommended that you taste Costa Rican coffee with only a small amount of sugar and cream in order to enjoy its girlish flavor.

First, we should seek financial support from the government and set up a "coffee trust fund" to help coffee growers with difficulties tide over their cash flow difficulties.

Second, vigorously develop high-quality coffee, increase the added value of coffee exports, and make up for the losses caused by the fall in coffee prices. Its main approach is to focus on the cultivation of high-quality coffee from 1000 meters to 1500 meters above sea level, prohibit the collection of immature coffee beans, strengthen the screening of coffee beans, and pay attention to the environmental protection ingredients during planting and processing.

From 2002 to 2003, Colombia produced 3 million packets of coffee (60 kg each) and exported 1.87 million packets of coffee. 40% of the coffee exported is high-quality refined coffee, which is known internationally as "GOURMET coffee". In the international market, refined coffee costs an average of US $93.61 per bag (46kg) (FOB), which is US $19.56 higher than that of ordinary coffee. I also have a kind of refined coffee, which sells for $800 a bag.

The main competitors for high-quality coffee in Colombia are Kenya, Guatemala and Ethiopia. Coffee production in Brazil and Vietnam is mainly in quantity, which is not enough to pose a threat to high-quality coffee in Colombia. In the next five years, my country is going to increase the export of high-quality coffee to 70% of all exported coffee.
