這款瓜地馬拉藝妓令人喜愛。層次豐富,使用了有機肥料後再其風味特徵發生了很棒的改變,並將許多不同的風味融合在一起。這絕對是值得購買的一款藝伎!
咖啡首先散發出濃鬱、飽滿的香氣,明亮、甜美,並帶有微妙的水果和花香;烘培過程中帶出玉米糖的甜味。味道非常美麗,前面有濃鬱的花香,中間和最後有奶油和莓果果乾的味道。隨著咖啡冷卻,花香逐漸演變,變得更甜、更細膩。花香的層次感通常在咖啡中極少發現帶有爆炸的香氣,所以這款咖啡是一個很好的驚喜。咖啡口感順滑,酸度穩定。甜味(尤其是餘韻)讓我想起玉米糖麥片。但當我喝完每一口時,我的腦海裡立刻浮現出玉米糖的味道。在與瓜地馬拉2023年的杯測冠軍ANDRES討論了這款咖啡後,他更心了對這款咖啡的描述,稱「錢香入口帶著濃郁戶子花中段夾著玫瑰花乾香後段帶出玉米糖甜味、融合了柑橘,莓果酸甜
各國藝伎咖啡的不同:
巴拿馬藝妓
「巴拿馬藝妓,具有花香、柑橘風味,歸因於當地農民栽植出這種優質的咖啡品種,且市場需求持續成長。」James Hoffman的著作「世界咖啡地圖」
衣索比亞藝妓
「風味具有:桃子、橘色花的香氣、瓜果、核果、花香」。美國知識份子咖啡
瓜地馬拉藝妓:
淺培:層次豐富,覆盆子帶著單品巧克力的果酸調性、柑橘酸甜,莓果麥片甜感,很乾净;明亮、多汁的酸度。
上面三種藝妓都有提到其具有柑橘與花香的風味,這就是藝妓這個品種的特點。但各地區的藝妓又有其獨特的ㄧ些風味,差異可能來自種植地區的差異、處理過程差異的影響,再來外觀有些事尖形的有些稍微圓形的外觀是因為移植後在不同氣候海拔的影響但不會使其風味喪失其自帶的柑橘酸感與花香.
Caring for the Environment
The farm has a variety of programs in place that ensure a sustainable model. Due to the high levels of water usage in the wet-milling process, the farm has established reabsorption wells connected to its water-efficient mill. The wells allow water used for wet milling to sit for three days for the sediment to fall to the bottom of the wells and be removed. This prevents waste-water runoff that can be hazardous for the environment and for people.
Another of the farm’s sustainability-based initiatives is its vermiculture program. Coffee pulp and dirt are mixed together and then offered as a home to red African worms, which digest the pulp. The resulting compost is full of macro- and micro-nutrients that nourish all the plants on the farm. Any extra compost is sold to local farmers.
The farm also reuses parchment. Once it has been removed from the beans, the parchment is stored in silos and used as fuel for the farm’s machine dryers.
In addition to caring for the environment, the farm takes care of its team. It has a health clinic that treats more than 4,000 patients annually. Founded in 2006, the clinic is named after Arturo and is free to the farm’s employees, suppliers and their families.
Coffee Processing
Once the cherries have been harvested, with pickers paying close attention to pick only the perfectly ripe cherries, they are brought to the wet mill where they are place in floating tanks to remove any under-ripe cherries.
Next, the cherries are pulped and then put into fermentation tanks for 12 to 18 hours, after which the mucilage is removed. The beans are dried for two days on a patio and then for 35 hours in a drying machine before drying for a final day on a patio.
Finally, the beans are rested in parchment for 30 days, before the parchment is removed and the beans are sorted by color and size and placed in GrainPro bags.
