A brief introduction to the description of the flavor, taste and aroma characteristics of Santo Domingo boutique coffee beans

The temperate climate in Dominica is conducive to coffee cultivation, and the best places to grow coffee are the Barahona region in the southwest and the Cibao Valley north of Santiago, Dominica's second largest city. The northern region, represented by Hibao, and the southern region, including Okayabani Santo Domingo, produce good coffee. Among them, the coffee produced by Santo Domingo and Barney is famous all over the world, which is almost synonymous with domiga coffee.

Turning to the introduction of Dominican coffee, the most distinctive features are fresh and elegant, full of particles, excellent acidity and pleasant flavor (two colleagues agree with this).

Coffee in Dominica varies slightly in taste according to the altitude of the region where it is grown, with sour but rich taste in the highlands, and less sour and smoother taste in the lowlands. On the other hand, the high-quality coffee beans produced by some Dominican estates have a rich aroma, mellow taste and moderately bright sour taste, and are often compared with those from Puerto Rico or Jamaica.

In the early 18th century, coffee was introduced to Domiga from Martinique, and fine coffee was produced in the north represented by Hibao and in the south, including Okayabani Santo Domingo. Among them, the coffee produced by Santo Domingo and Barney, which is almost synonymous with domiga coffee, is a world-famous high-quality coffee. Santo Domingo coffee is characterized by freshness, elegance, fullness, excellent acidity and pleasant aroma, so it is worth it. The selection of Dominican coffee is usually done manually. The main basis for selection is according to the fullness of coffee particles, whether it is uniform, and then grade it. Generally speaking, coffee with full and uniform grains is easier to preserve. Only the fullest and most evenly grained coffee beans can be roasted to represent the best and finest coffee in the country.

Unlike coffee produced in Haiti, most of the coffee grown in the Dominican Republic has been washed, which is a symbol of high quality. Miniga Coffee uses a washing method to treat coffee beans, so that the quality of treated coffee beans is more guaranteed. The coffee beans treated by washing method retain more original flavor than the drying method, and the aroma is pure and soft.

Carefully selected in this way, the high-quality Dominican coffee exudes a faint aroma with a faint fruity aroma and a lingering finish. The Dominican Republic is located in the east of the island of Haiti in the West Indies, bordered by the Republic of Haiti to the west, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and the Caribbean Sea to the south. With an area of about 49000 square kilometers and a population of 7.1 million, the Dominican Republic and the Republic of Haiti coexist on an island bordering Haiti. Like its neighbors, the Dominican Republic has a history of revolution and poverty, but now it has democratic elections and the country is relatively stable.

The Dominican Republic has also experienced a history of unrest and poverty, and now the country has implemented democratic elections and entered a period of stable development, but it has not yet formally established diplomatic relations with China, but has maintained so-called "diplomatic relations" with Taiwan. It seems that this has nothing to do with coffee, but in fact, it still has an impact. The exchanges between the two countries that have not established diplomatic relations are subject to many restrictions in all aspects, of course, it will also affect our coffee trade. Dominican coffee is mainly exported to the United States and a small number of European countries because of its superior quality, which is rarely seen in our Chinese mainland.

The earliest coffee in Dominica was introduced from Martinique (the overseas province of France), dating back to the early 18th century. Dominica is an island country with a tropical climate, with little change in temperature throughout the year. Except for the lower temperature in the Central Cordillera Mountains, which can reach less than 0 ℃ in winter, the average annual temperature in other areas is between 25 ℃ and 30 ℃. Affected by the mountain topography, the north and east face the northeast trade wind, with an annual precipitation of 1500-2500 mm, which belongs to a tropical maritime climate. The mountain forest is dense, the leeward southwest annual precipitation is 500-1000 mm, the dry season is long, belongs to the savanna climate.

To trace the origin of Tibica, we should first talk about the coffee trees originally planted in Martinique. These trees were planted by Dominicans as far back as the early 18th century, so Dominica began growing coffee as early as that time. For a time, the Caribbean was almost synonymous with coffee production, but in recent years Cuba, Haiti and other places have been severely damaged by Hurricane George, and later planted Kaddura species with lower numbers and higher harvests.

Dominica coffee is mainly produced in areas such as Cibao in the Central Mountains, the Caribbean and Barahona. There are many large estates in Siwao, and coffee trees are planted with 75% Kaddura and 25% Tibica. In terms of varieties, Balaona is a region with a high proportion of Dibica species, which is located in the Jarabacoa region near Siwao, has the largest farm in Dominica-Ramirez Manor (RamirezEstates), mainly grows Kaddura varieties, and most of the coffee produced is sold to Europe, the United States and other western countries and regions. Ramirez Manor itself produces coffee in an environmentally friendly way.

Coffee in Dominica is graded in sizes such as AA and AB, but it is classified as top grade by coffee from highlands such as Sivao and Baraona. Both kinds of coffee are harvested from February to May and are refined by washing.

Such flavor characteristics are not only related to varieties and soil quality, but also closely related to the picking and handling of raw beans. Coffee in Dominica is selected by the most expensive manual method, which is the main consideration for workers. One is the fullness of coffee particles, the other is to see whether it is uniform, and the grades are divided according to these conditions. The fullest and most evenly grained coffee beans represent the finest and finest coffee in Dominica. And only choose the washing treatment method to ensure the high quality and stability of coffee beans. The coffee beans treated with water washing method taste cleaner and exude a touch of pure and soft fragrance, which can make people feel a faint fruity aroma and a winding aftertaste. Smooth and smooth Dominican coffee is also slightly different in taste according to the altitude of the planting region, and the taste of the highland is slightly sour, but the taste is rich. The lowland is less sour and tastes smoother. On the other hand, the high-quality coffee beans produced by some Dominican estates have a rich aroma, mellow taste and moderately bright sour taste. Compared with the famous Puerto Rican or Jamaican coffee beans, the earliest coffee in Dominica was introduced from Martinique (France's overseas province), dating back to the early 18th century.
