In 1931, it was exported to Kenya in obscurity from Geisha Mountain Mountain in southwestern Ethiopia, wandered to Tanzania and Costa Rica, was transplanted to Panama in the 1960s, and then went through nearly half a century before it became a blockbuster, beating the victorious armies of Bourbon, Kaddura, Kaduai and Tibika to win the first prize of the Panamanian National Treasure Bean Cup Test Competition in 2005, 2006 and 2007. In 2007, the International famous Bean Cup Test sponsored by the American Fine Coffee Association (SCAA) won the championship again, and the bidding price was sold at US $130 per pound, setting a record for the highest price in the history of competition beans. It is reported that the later Panamanian national treasure bean competition will be divided into two groups: Rose Summer and non-Rose Summer, so as not to be robbed of the brilliance of other varieties by Rose Summer. Rosa is a member of the Tibika family, but it became famous more than 70 years after leaving Ethiopia, and fulfilled the saying that Ethiopia is a treasure trove of Arabica genes. it is enough to make waves in the coffee market Rosa coffee raw beans have a very beautiful turquoise. The warm and moist texture of jade, which smells of fresh grass, peach, berry and the unique milky sweetness of oolong tea that most coffee beans do not have, seems to need to be associated with aroma and taste. but the faint smell of tea is something we can obviously feel [1].

In order to highlight the characteristics and aroma of this bean, the baking degree is on the verge of two explosions, and two explosions and one sound are more commonly used baking degrees, which can give play to the characteristics of the beans themselves. If they are too shallow, they will produce miscellaneous smells, and if they are too deep, they will lose the aroma of flowers and fruit acid. of course, this should be adjusted according to the characteristics of coffee beans and the roaster's understanding of the beans themselves.

The dry aroma of Rosa is very bright, with aromas of rose and jasmine, with aromas of pomelo and citrus, light baked with nutty aromas, and wet aromas with hazelnut and more floral characters. In terms of taste and flavor, compared with the previously rising aroma, it may be slightly mild and subtle in the early stage, and the flower and fruit flavor will gradually increase as the temperature drops, and the cold aroma is excellent (sweet preserved fruit, rose fruit, orange glaze jam, strawberry jam, silk pine, cherry, vanilla and rose gradually fade, leading to lemon-flavored fruit). This is a coffee that can be praised by a large number of adjectives, the sweetness of the silk, which is testing the brightness of this coffee, especially in the case of shallow roasting.

The fragrance of flowers, tropical fruits, strong sweetness; these are the feelings that Rose Summer has always given us. Properly baked, they make you feel like sipping the fragrance of a bouquet of flowers. You may not know the story of Rosa, an ancient native species from Ethiopia that was brought as a coffee sample to a coffee experimental garden in Costa Rica and distributed to several small farms for small-scale trials.

Not many people followed Rose Summer until one day, Esmeralda Manor in Panama separated it from other varieties and won the national coffee competition.

She is so extraordinary that the fruity and floral elements are like Yega Xuefei from Africa and Ethiopia on the other side of the world. Of course, these are all old news now. Some small farms also get summer roses and are eager to grow their own roses.

However, the results are different, and this "star" variety seems to have different tastes in different geographical locations due to the influence of weather, soil and altitude. However, in the Aktenango area, we see typical rosy summer features: the slender shape of beans, the changes during baking, and the elegant and uncooked flavor in the cup.
