Flavor description of Costa Rican Tarazhu Coffee Bean Flavor treatment Grinding scale varieties

(Honey Coffee), can be translated as "as sweet as honey" treatment. The coffee that Costa Rica claims to be "as sweet as honey" is Honey Coffee on the sack, which is quite eye-catching. It has improved the Brazilian half-sun method to increase sweetness, focusing on keeping the pectin layer glued to the pods as completely as possible, removing the peel and moving the sticky pods to an outdoor viaduct, similar to Kenyad's practice, so as not to absorb the odor and moisture of the land, then expose to the sun and air-dry for about a week or two. During this period, you have to turn the pods every hour to make them evenly dry, so that the beans can fully absorb the fruit aroma and sugar essence of the thick pectin layer, and put them into a wooden container to ripen after dehydration. It takes a lot of work, but the fruit of "honey wine" tastes as sweet as honey. The disadvantage is that the risk of this method is very high, and it is easy to mildew and rot when the weather is too wet. Costa Rica is not as dry as it is, but it dares to use the treatment of exposure for a long time, which makes people feel cold sweat, but it also reflects Costa Rican coffee craftsmanship.

The flavor of Costa Rica has always been steady, without the sharpness of Guatemala, it is quite mild and supple, sour, sweet and bitter chocolate, inclusive and well-balanced, is the classic flavor of gourmet coffee. The seven major coffee producing areas are as follows: Durieba Valley (northeast of the capital San Jose), Central Valley (northwest of San Jose), Western Valley (west of the capital), Sanhe District (east side of the capital), Blanca (southeast of the capital), Orosi (north of the capital), Tarazu (south of the capital). Among them, the Central Valley, Tarazhu and Sanhe producing areas are the most famous. In principle, the quality of coffee sloping towards the Pacific is better than that facing the Atlantic. In the 2007 Costa Rica Cup Test Competition, the champion farm Serobado was located in the Tarazu producing area south of San Jose, but the Central Valley also performed well, with two or four from the city of Naranhe, where Sanhe District seemed to be left out.

The strict management of Laminita Farm in Tarazhu production area has established a world-class reputation and is popular in European and American markets for most of the century. It can be called a world-famous coffee farm. Lamini Tower means "small gold mine". Before the Spanish colonization, the Indians used to dig gold in the present farm location, which can be described as a blessed land. Raminita produces about 1 million pounds of coffee beans a year, and after selection to remove defects (more than 70% eliminated), only 290000 pounds of high-end products are sold to the boutique market, which is not a false name. The coffee of Gai Manor is famous for its sour aromas of apple and citrus, rich milk and truffle, and delicate taste of silk, about 1200-1700 meters above sea level. In addition, Sanhe District is also a famous producing area. The Yilazhu volcano and rivers not far to the east of the capital form an excellent microclimate zone, but in recent years, the urban area has gradually extended to the suburbs, and agricultural land has been sold to developers, resulting in a sharp decline in coffee production in Sanhe area. the output is almost half of which is contracted by Starbucks, and it is not easy for the industry to buy. Aquez Grass, a famous farm in this area, has been adhering to it since 1857. It has a long history, bright acidity, soft and unsharp fruit, nuts, flower-scented taffy and sweet fragrance, which is the characteristic of coffee in this area.
