Introduction to the characteristics of Costa Rican Yellow Honey Coffee Bean Flavor description
Costa Rican coffee
Although Costa Rica has won the recognition of coffee gluttons through honey-treated coffee beans, it is also closely related to Costa Rica's superior geographical and climatic conditions, and the selection of Arabica varieties of coffee. Costa Rica's high-quality coffee beans are called "very hard beans" (SHB), and the quality of hard beans (HB) and slightly hard beans (SH) decline in turn, and this is also the way it is graded. Extremely hard beans grow at an altitude of more than 1500 meters, and altitude always represents the quality of coffee, and high altitude means better quality. In addition, due to the high altitude drop caused by sufficient rainfall, is very beneficial to the growth of coffee trees; and high altitude night temperature is low, resulting in slow growth of trees, so that coffee fruit better absorb more nutrients, coffee flavor is also richer.
Its three most famous producing areas are Tarasu, south of the Costa Rican capital SanJose, as well as the producing areas of the Central Valley and the western valley. Among them, there are many excellent independent estates, all of which are carefully cultivating more fine washing and honey-treated coffee beans. let's hope that Costa Rica will bring us more honey-treated coffee surprises.
Although the development of boutique coffee started relatively late, but now Costa Rican boutique coffee is developing rapidly, with honey-treated mild acidity, soft taste and sweet high-quality berry flavor, it is not to be underestimated. And the so-called honey treatment method: refers to the coffee beans in the washing method to remove the peel and flesh of the step, select the remaining part of the pectin pulp to carry out a fermentation process, this treatment is honey treatment. According to the amount of remaining pectin meat, there are different flavors and names. For example, Costa Rica with yellow honey has about 25% pectin left over, red honey is about 50%, and black honey retains about 80% of pectin flesh. The most obvious difference between them is that they are sweeter from yellow, red and black. Coupled with the rich fruit rhyme, it is deeply loved by the coffee gluttons.
Costa Rican boutique coffee has only come to the fore in the past decade. Although Costa Rica introduced coffee from Cuba as early as 1729 and carried out commercial cultivation, it made great efforts to develop the coffee bean industry. But it mainly produces and distributes mixed coffee beans and Italian commercial beans for export to its nearest neighbor, the United States, which is one of the largest coffee consumers. Because of this, the quality of Costa Rican coffee beans at that time had not yet reached the level of fine coffee. Moreover, due to the poor quality of coffee beans, Costa Rica does not have a national standard (a national standard for regulating the grade of raw coffee beans), because its country is not qualified to evaluate it.
Until later, Costa Rica in order to strengthen the export of high-quality coffee to Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries. Just began to vigorously develop high-quality coffee and increase the added value of coffee exports. At the same time, the government has set up a "coffee trust fund" to help coffee farmers in need tide over their financial difficulties and cultivate high-quality coffee. And in order to make coffee have better quality and characteristics, we used the popular honey treatment method in recent years to change the reputation of poor quality coffee. Therefore, the Costa Rican boutique coffee we are now exposed to is the fine processed honey beans of each of its estates. However, there are still coffee beans treated with ordinary sun water, but the quality and flavor are not so good, so there is no wide trade between honey-treated beans.
