Takesi Manor, the treatment of drinking water and coffee after harvest, uses ice-cold mountains and rivers that melt high mountains, so we give her a nickname: Takesi Snow vein Manor. In addition to a low-temperature, pollution-free environment, fertile and well-drained volcanic soil is also an element of coffee flavor. Although the owner of Agrotakesi SA is rich, he secretly respects nature and the way of getting along with each other, does not over-cultivate, and retains a large number of primitive forests and diverse ecological environment. It is famous for its crops such as apples, orchids and flowers, and now it has won the first prize in the coffee contest, and Takesi's reputation has become even more popular.

I remember that the admirable champion bean in 2007 was Coffee Manor, but her score was overtaken by the 2008 champion Cafe de Cordillera, when the international judges gave it a high score of 92.03. in 2009, Takesi Snow vein Manor got a score of 93.36, surpassing the champion of 2008, and the bidding price was as high as US $35.05. it was the highest bid in CoE national competition in 2009! Osher has been bidding for Bolivia's champion beans for three years in a row. She is really attracted by her delicate floral fragrance, charming sweet vanilla and clean and changeable flavor. In 2010, many factors, Bolivia decided to cancel the national competition, examine this batch of Takesi winning beans, it is mixed feelings, hard-won ah.

Bolivia's high-quality estates, very high altitude, perennial low temperature environment, so that coffee fruit growth is slow, tight enough, aroma is also charming, floral aroma is obvious, such as careful handling, cherries with the same maturity, often have a clean and meticulous high-end taste, this elegant vanilla and honey aromas are very attractive, this champion bean has a variety of floral aromas, vanilla and sweet very long-lasting.

The following is the certificate of this batch of champion beans and the green and beautiful appearance of raw beans:

The goal of planting coffee in the whole Takesi manor is 200ha, but only 13ha is planted and harvested very little Typica species, and the annual yield is only 120bags. This is not only fine agriculture, but also a farming model that respects nature. Takesi is the name of the local natives, the place name and the snow water from the mountains, also known as Takesi. After the publication of the CoE final in 2009, Takesi is no longer unknown.

Bolivia not only has a unique growing environment, but also has an excellent variety of coffee-Typica. In the past two hundred years, the main variety of coffee in Yanggas area is the ancient Tibica. Tibica coffee has a balanced and soft flavor, with lively aroma and rich sour taste. Unfortunately, the low production of Tibika and poor disease resistance have led to low coffee production in Bolivia. There are even fewer opportunities to taste Bolivian coffee. So in order to increase coffee production, Bolivia, like other Central American countries, began to experiment with growing Kaddura and Catuai. Kaddura variety has high yield, high quality, rich sour taste and resistance to leaf rust. Kaduai variety has high yield, strong environmental adaptability and tolerance to diseases and insect pests. Planting these two varieties is expected to increase the yield as much as possible while ensuring the flavor quality.

The overall taste of Bolivian coffee is rich and balanced, the aroma is rich and unique, similar to the mixture of flower and fruit aroma, impressive. The perennial low temperature environment makes the coffee fruit grow slowly, compact enough, the aroma is also charming, the floral aroma is obviously medium and low acidity, but the feeling is not monotonous, on the contrary, it appears soft and fresh, with the sour taste of citrus fruit.

Because Bolivia's production is low, we don't have many chances to drink it. It is precisely because the smaller the output, the more precious it is. Because of my personal preference for Central American coffee, I still have more expectations for Bolivia, a small and beautiful coffee producer.

Record of in-depth visit to coffee producing areas in Bolivia

Osher's cup tester has served as the international judge of every CoE national competition, in terms of road conditions and climate, and even visa difficulties, Bolivia is the most difficult, but her coffee is so fragrant, even if the beer is also full of wild honey sweet, drink at room temperature, that beer is like foaming caramel syrup, so far, the aftertaste is endless.

Comparable to the Hama Cooperative in Yegashev District the aroma of both is equally remarkable but the difference is that Takesi has the Bolivian champion flavor that comes down in a continuous line. The variety of flowers and sweet vanilla is particularly outstanding and unforgettable.
