The protagonist of coffee myth
The protagonist of the coffee myth in Latin America, Central America and the Caribbean
It used to be the protagonist of coffee mythology, but many people think that the legendary characteristics-rich aroma, complete texture, perfect combination with even and palatable sour taste-are no longer there, and the beautiful sour taste that existed 15 years ago can only be found in memories.
In spite of this, its price still goes up. In Taiwan, the retail price of guaranteed raw beans is usually more than 2000 yuan per kilogram. In the market for raw beans, which are commonly packed in gunny bags, blue mountain beans that insist on barrel packaging show their extraordinary price.
The term "Jamaica High Mountain" refers to coffee beans grown in other mountains less than 1,000 meters on the island, which are of relatively ordinary quality and have a mild texture and sour taste. As for "Blue Mountain Blend" or "Blue Mountain Style" coffee, it is usually a combination of good Colombian beans, intended to imitate the taste of Blue Mountain, and has nothing to do with Jamaica. You won't find any real blue beans in Blue Mountain coffee.
[Dominican Republic (Dominican Republic)]
Beans from the Dominican Republic are often called "Santo Domingan" (their old country name), and the coffee plantations there are mainly around the mountains in the middle of the island.
There are four kinds of washed alpine coffee on the market: Cibao, Bani, Ocoa and Barahona, and the latter three are especially praised. The sweet taste of soft ripe fruit is very similar to that of Haitian coffee, while Balahona has a high acidity and a thick taste of typical Caribbean beans, which is close to the Jamaican mountains in quality and characteristics. Baking to medium depth best highlights their sweetness.
[Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico)]
Beans, named after Yauco Selecto, are the best example of Caribbean beans. They are rich in texture, balanced in taste, gentle but complex and deep. Deep-baked Caribbean beans do not have the rough burning taste common in other deep-baked beans and are suitable for filter kettles (Plunger or French Press) and other cooking methods that have been soaked for a long time.

History of Coffee in South America
[Colombia] is the world's second-largest coffee producer, accounting for about 12% of the world's annual output, which is much lower than Brazil's 30% to 35%, but most of them are high-quality mountain-washed beans. Central Colombia is divided into valleys by three north-south longitudinal mountains, of which the central and eastern mountains are the main coffee producing areas. The coffee here is named after the distributed market

French Coffee Culture
The French do not seem to pay attention to the taste, but the environment and atmosphere. Most of them do not want to drink alone behind closed doors, but join in the fun outside, even if the price of a small cup is enough to make a pot at home.
