Introduction to the taste description of Costa Rican coffee beans

Coffee was introduced into Costa Rica from Cuba in 1729. Today, its coffee industry is one of the well-organized industries in the world, with a yield of 1700 kg per hectare. Costa Rica has only 3.5 million people but 400m coffee trees, and coffee exports account for 25 per cent of the country's total exports. Costa Rica's volcanic soil is very fertile and well drained, especially in the central plateau CentralPlateau, where the soil consists of successive layers of ash and dust. Costa Rica was therefore the first country in Central America to grow coffee and bananas for commercial value. Coffee and bananas are the country's main exports

The coffee trees planted in Costa Rica are all Arabica coffee trees. through improvement, the quality of coffee beans is better and more stable. in order to facilitate picking, coffee trees are kept at a height of about 2 meters through continuous pruning. The coffee that people eat is the taste of the seeds in the fruit that are brewed in water. After picking raw coffee beans, the seeds (that is, coffee beans) can be roasted only by peeling, pulp, seed film and sun exposure. now part of the process can be replaced by machines, and the speed of coffee production has increased a lot. However, there is no machine to do the coffee picking, so we must use manual labor.

Costa Rica in order to strengthen the export of high-quality coffee to Europe, America, Japan and other countries. Just began to vigorously develop high-quality coffee and increase the added value of coffee exports. At the same time, the government has set up a "coffee trust fund" to help coffee farmers in need tide over their financial difficulties and cultivate high-quality coffee. And in order to make coffee have better quality and characteristics, we used the popular honey treatment method in recent years to change the reputation of poor quality coffee. Therefore, the Costa Rican boutique coffee we are now exposed to is the fine processed honey beans of each of its estates. However, there are still coffee beans treated with ordinary sun water, but the quality and flavor are not so good, so there is no wide trade between honey-treated beans.
