The famous Xinglong Coffee stir-frying

Xinglong coffee is not to be missed when traveling to Hainan. Returned overseas Chinese not only bring the tradition of drinking coffee and the craft of making and brewing coffee to Hainan Xinglong, but also produce the famous Xinglong coffee.

Xinglong Coffee settled in Xinglong in 1953, when Xinglong Farm was just established. In order to realize the practice of "short-term growth", that is, short-term crop income such as coffee, citronella and rice was used to make up for long-term crop income such as rubber, Xinglong began to introduce coffee planting from Chengmai Fushan.

After a long time of research, it was found that although the large seed of coffee has high yield, the quality is poor; although the small seed tastes excellent, its growth environment is plateau climate, Xinglong altitude is very low, planting small seed not only yields low, but also the life of the tree is not long. Finally, they began to plant medium-sized coffee in large areas as the most suitable variety for Xinglong cultivation. Xinglong's altitude, latitude and climate provided a good guarantee for the settlement of medium-sized coffee.

At that time, the planting area of coffee was very large, and the whole Xinglong area had more than 3000 mu. In order to ensure the quality of coffee beans, coffee beans are ripe a grain, pick a grain, when workers were too busy, farm students often half a day to come to the plantation to pick coffee. After the 1990s, with the continuous decline of coffee bean prices, the planting area of Xinglong coffee has been decreasing continuously. Up to now, the coffee planting area in Xinglong area has been less than 1,000 mu.

Xinglong's stir-frying technology is based on Southeast Asian methods. Xinglong's native coffee is most suitable for such stir-frying methods. In the stir-frying process, not only should the heat be mastered, but also white sugar, salt and butter should be added at the right time. This coffee is especially fragrant.

"Xinglong coffee is world-class. I've drunk a lot of foreign coffee, but our own coffee tastes better." On February 7,1960, Premier Zhou Enlai visited Xinglong Farm and greatly appreciated it after drinking Xinglong Coffee. A cup of fragrant coffee, an amiable prime minister, wrote a good name for Xinglong Coffee.

Stir-fried coffee flavor strong, coconut milk coffee taste unique, Xinglong some scenic spots also stir-fried on site, so that visitors taste the freshest coffee at the same time, understand its production process. However, high-quality coffee, excellent frying technology, but failed to really make Xinglong coffee flourish, to this day in many Xinglong people's hearts is a permanent pain.
