Review of baking in Costa Rica-introduction to the origin of coffee beans

The city of Catago was founded in 1563 and Costa Rica was colonized by Spain and placed under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of Guatemala. During the colonial period, under the cruel enslavement and oppression of the Spanish colonists, the Indians were almost wiped out, and there was little labor available for enslavement, so the Spaniards had to cultivate small plots of land and produce the agricultural products they needed. Costa Rica has been in a state of poverty, ignorance and isolation for a long time.

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 well-known farm in this area, has persisted since 1857. It has a long history, bright acidity, soft acidity, nuts, flower-scented taffy, sweet and charming, which are the characteristics of coffee in this area.

Costa Rica's production is small, with an annual output of about 110000 tons, ranking seventh in Central and South America.
