What do we need to know when choosing specialty coffee?
The first is the place of origin. Most specialty coffees are named after their origins, such as Colombia, Bolivia, Guatemala, etc. There are also those named after varieties, such as Geisha. Mandheling is a special case, which is neither the name of the breed nor the place of origin, and it is produced in Indonesia.
Secondly, it is necessary to understand washing, sun drying, wet planing, black honey...... These terms refer to the way coffee is processed after it has been picked, and different treatments bring out different flavors of the coffee. I won't go into too much detail about the specific flavors, but you can consult the barista who brews your coffee for you.
Finally, the roast degree, the common ones are light roast (CINNAMON Roast), medium roast (HIGH roast), medium roast (CITY roast), dark roast (FULL-CITY roast), French roast (French roast), Italian roast (Italian Roast), the darker the roast degree, the darker the taste of the coffee, and the bitterness will become stronger, on the contrary, the lighter roast coffee has a bright taste and a stronger fruity acidity.
