Chapter 1242 Weird Coffee
Li Zhongxin was a little unhappy when Jamino interrupted and put the topic aside, and put the matter of telling everyone to watch the ice lamp aside.
This time he brought a few people together, preparing to go to see the ice lamp at night, and while talking about the ice lamp, he was actually pulled to the coffee side.
Not only Jamino and Bamlowsky, but also the beautiful Masako Mitsui also got involved at this time. Li Zhongxin thought depressedly, is it interesting to discuss what Blue Mountain Coffee and what cat shit coffee?
But! Li Zhongxin suddenly remembered something he had heard of later generations - the best coffee in the world is Yunnan, China!
Coffee is a product of the tropical region, and Li Zhongxin doesn’t believe it. The world’s best coffee production is actually in Yunnan Province, China.
Unfortunately, Chinese people do not value coffee and do not know how to use coffee for foreign exchange.
There are many people in the world who love the things in the cup. The so-called things in the cup are not spirits, but coffee from all over the world. These people have already tasted the world's top coffee, and they only found out after they arrived in Yunnan. The best coffee origin is not Colombia, not Turkey, not Indonesia, but mainland China.
After inspecting the Yunnan coffee planting and primary processing base, the International Coffee Organization Tasting Experts evaluated Yunnan coffee as a type of small-grain coffee wet-processed coffee, which is the highest quality coffee in the world.
As we all know, coffee is a product from the equator to the fifteenth degree north latitude, so it is produced in South America, Indonesia and Africa. However, the coffee produced from the equator to the fifteenth degree north latitude is too strong and has a bitter taste, so only some people who drink coffee but do not know its taste will love it. In fact, the best coffee should be produced between the fifteenth degree north latitude and the Tropic of Cancer.
It’s really a coincidence that the southern part of Yunnan Province in China (especially close to Laos) and the northern part of Yunnan Island happen to be on this golden zone. Although Hawaii, Saudi Arabia and other places in the United States are located in this zone, Hawaii has no mountains and no thick fog, and the deserts in the sand have no water, so coffee cannot be settled. Therefore, the best coffee producing area in the world is actually in China.
"What cat shit coffee? Why haven't I heard of it? And why does this name look weird?" Jamino asked in confusion.
Regarding the cat shit coffee mentioned by Masako Mitsui, Jamino always felt that there was something strange about it. How could the name of the coffee be produced? This name is too ugly!
But! Jamino also knew in his heart that Masako Mitsui could be said to be a big shot in terms of luxury goods, and the thing she said was basically true.
After Jamino asked, Haruko asked in confusion: "Mom. Why is the name of this coffee so weird? Can you tell me?"
After Mitsui Masako looked at Jamino and Haruko again, she slowly spoke: "This rare coffee is called kopi luwak, also known as Sumatra civet coffee. After a unique fermentation process, the flavor is very different from that of ordinary coffee.
Traditionally, coffee fruits are washed or sun-dried to remove the peel, flesh and sheep skin layer, and finally remove the coffee beans. However, Luwak uses natural fermentation in the body to remove the coffee beans, so they have a special flavor.
There is a kind of civet cat named luwak in the mountains in Indonesia. It likes to eat paddles of coffee fruits, but the hard coffee seeds cannot be digested and excreted with feces. Indonesians find that the coffee beans fermented through the stomach of civets are particularly thick and mellow, so they collect civet excrement, filter out the coffee beans, so they soak and drink. Due to the sparse production, the price is high, and it is the most expensive coffee in the world.
Mountanos, which first introduced Ruwak coffee to the United States, pointed out that when he heard this kind of fermented coffee in the body, he thought it was a joke in the industry and did not take it seriously. Later, he saw Ruwak coffee's special report on him in National Geographic, and became interested in her. It took seven years to find a stable source of supply and began to introduce a small amount to the United States.
What is the flavor of this coffee? According to coffee experts, most of the Ruwak coffee is low-altitude Robusta beans, which is enough to prove that civets prefer Robusta, much more than Arabica beans at high altitude.
Generally speaking, Indonesian coffee has a earthy and Chinese herbal flavor, and its consistency is the highest among all continents. However, Luwak's earthy and consistency are stronger, the consistency is almost close to syrup, and the fragrance is very special. If you don't like Indonesian coffee, you will definitely hate Luwak coffee even more. If you prefer the earthy smell of Indonesian aged beans or Indian-style beans, you may fall in love with Luwak coffee with similar flavors.
Experts who have tasted Ruwak coffee have made polarized evaluations. Some people compare it to the best coffee in the world. It is quite thick and has extraordinary taste and is difficult to describe. It is a bit earthy, slightly choking and visceral. It cannot be removed in the mouth for a long time until the last drop.
Some people also said it was a gimmick, which was not worth spending money on stinky coffee. However, some people were willing to spend ten dollars to buy a cup of Ruwak coffee. Montanas only sold thirty pounds last year. It can be seen that this coffee is still in the tasting stage in the United States and is more popular in Japan.
There is a gland near the Indonesian civet cat's official, which secretes milky white oil, which has always been a precious raw material for the perfume industry. Even Shakespeare's play "King Lear" has a dialogue: "Please give me some civet oil to stimulate my inspiration." However, too much dose will have a pungent smell, and civet cats will sometimes ejaculate this oil to defend themselves."
Before Masako Mitsui explained thoroughly, Li Zhongxin felt that this thing was a bit pitfall. After listening to Masako Mitsui's explanation, Li Zhongxin gradually recognized Masako Mitsui's explanation.
The Japanese nation is a perverted nation. What they think is the best thing is something that people in the world cannot understand.
Li Zhongxin still has such a memory. In later generations, Li Zhongxin saw that many Japanese men had reached the extreme, specializing in raising some beautiful beauties. The selected girls would only eat vegetables for the first two months, and not eat anything else. After 2 months, they would start eating the flavors on the contract, such as the cantaloupe flavor, and they would eat cantaloupe for three meals a day, and not eat anything else.
Half a year later, in a very high-end room, a large round table was placed. There was a stool on the round table. There was a hole in the middle of the stool and a plate under the stool. The girl sat on the stool and the guests sat next to the table.
Therefore, Li Zhongxin believes that the perverts of the perverted nation cannot be explained, and it is normal to like such a cat's excrement.
