The origin of coffee beansCoffee beans, known as "black gold", are seeds extracted from the fruit of the coffee tree. According to archaeologists, the earliest record of coffee can be traced back to Ethiopia in the 15th century BC. At that time, people discovered wild coffee trees, ground their fruits, added water and drank them. This was the first time humans came into contact with coffee. Communication and CommercializationAs time went by, people began to realize that coffee has the effects of refreshing the mind and enhancing physical strength, and began to spread it to other regions. In the late 16th century, European colonists brought coffee to the New World and established large-scale plantations there. Different types of coffee beansThe two main types commonly seen on the market today are Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans are generally considered to be of higher quality and better tasting, and dominate the world, while Robusta is more tolerant to pests and diseases and has better adaptability. Coffee bean processingFrom picking to the final product, coffee beans go through a series of processing steps. First, they are peeled and fermented, then washed or dried. Next is roasting, which determines the flavor and aroma of the coffee beans. Factors that influence coffee flavorIn addition to the type and processing method, there are other factors that affect the flavor of coffee. The most important of these are soil, climate and altitude. The soil composition, sunshine hours and altitude of different regions will cause coffee beans to taste different. Major production areas around the worldCurrently, the world's major coffee producing areas include Brazil, Colombia, Vietnam and other countries. These places have suitable planting conditions and have formed a complete supply chain system. Sustainable development and fair tradeIn recent years, as people pay more attention to environmental protection and social equity, the coffee industry is also moving towards sustainable development and fair trade. Some farmer cooperatives and certification agencies are committed to providing organic, environmentally friendly and fair trade coffee beans. ConclusionCoffee beans, as a precious commodity, carry people's pursuit of deliciousness and enjoyment. By understanding its origin, processing and factors that affect flavor, we can better appreciate and taste this black gold. |
