Flavor description of Kilimanjaro Coffee Bean

After drinking Tanzanian coffee, I always feel a soft and mellow earthy smell at the corners of my mouth. Coffee gourmets often use words such as "wild" or "wild" to describe it. It can be said that pure Tanzanian coffee is "the most African coffee".

Usually its acidity is relatively mild, after the entrance, it evenly stimulates the taste buds in the middle and both sides of the back of the tongue, feeling a bit like the sour taste of tomato or soda. After moderate or more moderate baking, it has a strong aroma, then grind it into a fine powder, soak it in a pot of boiling water, and invite friends to sit around and taste it.

Coffee exports from Tanzania (Tanzania) play an important role in the whole national economy. In the past, the coffee industry in Tanzania has been dominated by manor cultivation, but now more than 85% are grown by small farmers. Many small farmers form cooperative organizations, the most important of which is the Kilimanjaro Cooperative Alliance (Kilimanjaro Cooperative Union, referred to as KNCU). Tanzanian coffee is sold by the Tanzanian Coffee Management Council (Tanzanian Coffee Marketing Board, TCMB) to private exporters by auction. In the 1980s, most coffee sales in Tanzania shifted from auctions to being sold directly to the Tanzania Coffee Management Committee.

Tanzania's main coffee producing area, located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, is rich in volcanic soil. Some coffee trees planted here are more than 100 years old. Coffee was first introduced by Christians from Kenya to grow coffee. Coffee trees must be carefully taken care of, weeded and fertilized. Moreover, the old branches must be cut off so that new branches can grow again to maintain the quality of coffee beans. The equipment of the coffee bean processing plant is quite perfect. Coffee beans are an important economic crop in Tanzania, and the local government attaches great importance to the first place in this industry: choose good quality coffee beans, because the use of poor quality coffee beans will of course greatly damage the flavor of coffee, even if a very balanced single product coffee is produced, but also can not make delicious coffee, the choice of good quality coffee beans is the most important point.

Second: get rid of defective beans, mixed with defective beans, the taste will become worse. Therefore, it is better to be missing than rotten to get rid of the defective beans without stinginess. For example, long worms with holes, abnormal development, shell without benevolence, will be picked out.

Third: understand the characteristics of coffee beans, if the individual characteristics of the coffee beans to be blended are not well understood, it is difficult to mix good or desired coffee, such as mocha coffee is more sour, it can not be used to dilute the sour taste of coffee.

Fourth: understand the different degree of roasting, different coffee beans are roasted differently, their flavor is also different, so we should have a good grasp, such as Kilimanjaro, Blue Mountain is generally medium-shallow baking, carbon roasting is deep baking and so on.
