Coffee beans: taste the world of fragrant coffee

The origin of coffee

Coffee, this fragrant drink, has a long history. It is said that coffee originated in the Ethiopian Plateau in Africa. According to legend, a shepherd found that his sheep became unusually active after eating a red fruit. So he also tried the fruit and found that it could keep people awake and energetic.

Coffee bean picking and processing

Of course, before we can enjoy the delicious coffee, we need to go through a series of tedious and delicate processes. The first is the picking stage, where the coffee is picked by hand at the right maturity, and then initially screened and sorted.

Next comes the processing stage, where the freshly picked coffee berries are peeled and pulped, leaving two complete coffee beans inside.

Different regions produce different flavors

One of the biggest surprises that coffee beans produced around the world bring to me is the richness and diversity of the coffee beans. Factors such as climate, soil, and altitude in different regions will affect the quality of coffee beans.

For example, Brazil is one of the world's largest coffee producers, producing beans with a rich, nutty flavor, while Colombia is known for its soft and rich taste, often referred to as "sweet as grape" coffee.

Roasting: Unleashing aroma and flavor

Roasting is the process of converting raw beans into the edible state we are familiar with. In this process, temperature and time control are crucial.

Light roasting allows the coffee to retain its original flavor and brings a bright and refreshing acidity; medium roasting is more balanced, with both sour, sweet and bitter tastes; dark roasting makes the coffee richer and gives it a special bitterness and chocolate-like aroma.

Brewing: Savor the Rich Flavor

When we finally pour the freshly ground coffee into the cup and smell its rich aroma, it means a wonderful journey is about to begin.

There are many different brewing methods, such as drip, French press, hand pour, etc. Each method can bring a different taste and flavor experience. Whether it is light and soft or rich and mellow, it all depends on our selection and processing of coffee beans.

Conclusion

The world of coffee with a mellow aroma shows infinite charm in the process of picking, processing, roasting and brewing raw beans. There is a story behind every cup of coffee, and this story is woven by raw beans.

Let us taste every sip of coffee carefully and feel the rich flavor and cultural heritage contained in it.
