A brief introduction to the planting Market Price of Superior Coffee Bean varieties in Nicaragua Lakadura

With the exception of Ethiopia, the origin of Arabica, the mutants or mixed-race varieties cultivated or found in Central and South America, India and East Africa are mainly Tibica and bourbon, and the genetic complexity is far lower than that of Ethiopia. this is the main reason for the weak physique and poor disease resistance of Arabica outside Ethiopia.

In addition, the biggest thing that bourbon and Tibica have in common is that shade trees must be "protected" to help block the sun. These two ancient varieties, such as unshaded trees, will not be conducive to growth and flavor development.

This is because Guatemala is located in the tropics, the northern and eastern coastal plains have a tropical rain forest climate, and the southern mountains have a subtropical climate, with two dry and wet seasons a year, with the wet season from May to October and the dry season from November to April of the following year.

The central plateau is also the cultural center of Guatemala, where temperatures are mild all year round between 1300 and 1800 Michael, with daily temperatures between 18 and 28 ℃, and higher levels tend to be colder in January and February. The annual precipitation is 2000-3000 mm in the northeast and 500-1000 mm in the south, while the ecological conditions in the south are very suitable for the growth of high-quality Arabica trees. What is more special is that several active volcanoes are distributed in the southern mountains, and these active volcanoes still erupt irregularly. Although they bring instability to the lives of the local people, their rich volcanic ash soil also benefits the local coffee industry and brings rich substances to coffee cultivation.

And most of the Guatemalan coffee beans belong to the bourbon species of Arabica, so almost all of Guatemala's coffee-growing areas are in the southern mountain forests of the country.

In Guatemala, there are seven major coffee producing areas, each producing different coffee flavors, but to sum up, Guatemalan coffee shows a mild and mellow overall texture, elegant aroma, and similar acidity and pleasant acidity, becoming the aristocracy of coffee, among which AntiguaClassic in Antigua is highly recommended by coffee gluttons all over the world.

The coffee beans in each producing area have their own characteristics, and they have won a lot of praise for Guatemala in the international community, especially the perfect coordination of the sour, sweet and mellow texture of Antigua; with a touch of smoke and a little more emphasis on its mystery, you will have a reason not to look for alternatives everywhere after tasting.

Guatemalan coffee beans are mostly cultivated in high-altitude volcanic soils belonging to the most advanced Arabica varieties. Due to the long ripening period, the beans are medium and dense (Guatemalan coffee beans are graded not on the basis of particle size, but on the basis of shortcomings), and the bean color is dark turquoise. The unique sour taste of fragrance, mellow, sweetness and freshness is characterized by the aroma and taste of coffee beans hidden in its sour taste. Therefore, coffee beans with this characteristic can be called first-class coffee beans. The name of the product is suitable for the taste characteristics of baking degree.

Coffee is a short-day plant. Coffee has the characteristics of multiple flowering and concentrated florescence. The flowering period of small seed coffee in Yunnan is 2mi-July, and the flowering period is 3m-May. The flowering of coffee is greatly affected by climate, especially rainfall and temperature. The life span of coffee flowers is short, only 2 murmurs for 3 days. Small seed coffee usually opens at 3: 00 am and 5: 00 am, and blooms at 5: 00 am.

The development time of coffee fruit is longer. It takes 10 months for the fruit of small seed coffee to ripen in 10-December of the year. Rainfall has a great influence on fruit development, and climatic conditions directly affect fruit.

Compared with these botanical characteristics, people may be more concerned about the taste of Kaddura. At the site where Kaddura is planted, the higher the altitude, the higher the quality, but the corresponding yield is also less. When Kaddura is slightly roasted, the sour aroma is obvious and the whole is bright, and the sweetness can be very good with proper treatment, but the mellowness of coffee is relatively low compared with bourbon, and the cleanliness of the taste is a little less than bourbon (Bourbon): juxtaposed with Tibica as an ancient fine variety. Some botanists even believe that Bourbon is a variant of the early Tibika transplanted to Yemen, where the bean shape changed from a thin tip to a round body. It was not until 1715 that France transplanted Mocha round beans from Yemen to the island of Bourbon on the east coast of Africa, and it was not until 1715 that it received the name round bourbon. Bourbon, which spread to Brazil and Central and South America in 1727, is also round beans. In addition, the British transplant of Yemeni mocha to St. Helena Island in 1732 was also a round bean. interestingly, it did not pass through Bourbon Island, but it was named Green Top Bourbon. It can be seen that the industry thinks that all the world's bourbon beans come from Bourbon Island is a big misunderstanding. It is important to recognize that there are many round bourbon beans that spread directly from Yemen without passing through the island of bourbon. In 181○, some of the round beans on Bourbon Island mutated into pointed beans, also known as the "pointed body of bourbon." its caffeine content was only half that of ordinary coffee, and its output was low, weak, and extremely rare.
