Introduction to the Flavor characteristics of Ethiopian Yega Snow Coffee

Yeah, Chevy Coffee.

There is a strict standard for collecting red fruits (as a result of coffee trees). Before exposure to coffee fruits, unripe green fruits or defective fruits are removed manually, and damaged or moldy fruits are removed during the sun drying process. after two weeks, the sugar and essence of the flesh and essence seep into the coffee beans, the water content is reduced to 12%, and then scrape the hardened pulp, pectin layer and pods with a planer. Take out the coffee beans and test the density and color of the beans. After eliminating the defective beans, the workers finally picked out the defective beans with the naked eye and screened them layer by layer, resulting in the cleanliness and vulgarity of Yejia snow beans, and there is a strong attractive fruit aroma of 2015 sun Yega snow caffeine, which has already appeared G1 grade, surpassing G1 washing in quality and selling phase.

This bean is baked intensively and brewed by hand and siphon. When grinding the beans, you can smell the pungent aroma of sun fruit, which is obvious in sweetness, and there is also the citrus and jasmine fragrance that is the signature of water washing. It tastes very much like the three-in-one flavor of Harald, Yemeni mocha and Yega snow coffee water-washed beans. However, in the past two years, Yega snow coffee is out of its normal state, frequently launching amazing sun-dried beans and becoming a boutique market, Deep-Fried Chicken!

Sun Yega snow coffee, beans are small and neat short round, Ethiopian sun beans are generally G3--G5, but this bean is G2, equal to the grade of water-washed beans, although there are still a few defective beans, but compared to Harald and Sidamo sun beans, the so-called 'Yega Snow Flavor' refers to strong aromas of jasmine, lemon, peaches, almonds and tea.

The author's tasting experience has only one sentence: coffee entrance, flowers in full bloom! Just like a flower touches the comfort of taste buds and olfactory cells in the nasal cavity. In addition to the fragrance of the flowers, the delicate mellow thickness (body) is like a silk massage in the mouth.

Traditionally, Yega snow coffee is treated by the oldest sun treatment, but in 1972, Ethiopia introduced water washing technology from Central and South America in order to improve its quality, which made its jasmine and citrus fragrance clearer and more refined. It has become the best quality bean in the world, thanks to its superb washing technology. Since the 1970s, this area has been mainly washed, becoming the most popular water-washed bean producing area in Egypt.

Coffee trees are mostly planted in farmers' own backyard or mixed with other crops in the field, the yield per household is not much, it is a typical rural coffee. These mountain villages are foggy, like spring all year round, with a gentle breeze in summer, cool but not hot, rain but not damp, and no cold damage in winter, giving birth to a unique aroma of oranges and flowers.
