Taste, like seeing, like listening, brings us the richest and most colorful experience in life at all times. But its presentation is not just about eating it in the mouth, chewing it, and swallowing it.
Needless to say, there is no shortage of friends who like coffee. Making your own coffee also begins with an inadvertent hand-to-hand mess. Since then, I have begun to associate with coffee, try out the intricate types of coffee, and experience the thick and sweet bitterness brought by different coffee beans.
Every time I go to a place, I make time for a seat at a local café. Gradually, I found that coffee will become a part of daily life, not only in its own category and taste, but also in different cultures, with different designs of the café experience.
This encounter with Pu'er coffee originated from a friend Who also loves coffee, Xiao Man.
In addition to Pu'er tea, there is also "international fan" coffee here!

When it comes to Pu'er, everyone will consciously think of Pu'er tea, as an important position on the tea horse ancient road, tea has become synonymous with Pu'er City. It seems that the term "Pu'er coffee" feels a little strange. But in fact, Pu'er's coffee and tea are as highly renowned internationally.
Xiao Man said that someone had asked her before: "Is there tea in Pu'er coffee?" It sounds a bit funny, but it also reflects a question on the side, and it is also a question in everyone's mind: "Is coffee made in China?" ”

The answer, of course, is yes
Pu'er not only has the reputation of "China's Tea City", but also has the title of "China's Coffee Capital", symbolizing the cultural differences between the East and the West, tea and Pu'er coexist harmoniously here.
Xiao Man went to Pu'er and said that there were more local coffees than tea. Pu'er is China's main coffee production and planting trade area, the export of coffee beans is tens of thousands of tons, we are familiar with some coffee brands here have coffee production plants.
Coffee has spawned a culture here, and a series of coffee-related experiences are carried out in this mountain estate, enough to make every coffee friend light up ♥.
Experience a rainforest coffee plantation
Every year in November, the coffee begins to ripen and be picked, and coffee lovers also gather in Pu'er to experience the joy of the harvest. Pu'er's special geography, climate and ecological environment have become the golden area for growing Arabica coffee, producing coffee with superior quality and unique flavor, which has contributed to carrying the banner of Chinese specialty coffee.
Xiao Man went to the Ai Ling Manor this time to experience the fun of picking with the friends of the Ai Ling clan. She carried the bamboo basket, wrapped the coffee branch in front of her into the basket, and twisted the coffee beans alternately with her hands and slid them into the basket. Seriously understand the birth of a cup of coffee.
Experience picking
After the coffee fruit is picked, it also needs to do a series of treatments, the processing method is different, the taste of the coffee beans produced is also different, but basically no matter which way of processing, it must go through the most basic link of picking - hulling - grading - drying.
Process the curry
After Xiao Man participated in the production process, he felt that when he enjoyed coffee afterwards, he would think of the sunshine on this plateau.
In addition to experiencing curry picking, she also visited different coffee varieties at the Coffee Seed Gene Bank. A special area has been set up in the manor: the coffee seed gene bank, and 33 high-quality coffee varieties such as Gem summer, Bobon, Cadula, Cadua, Tepika, Verasacci and Regina have been introduced from the main coffee producing areas around the world. From the gene pool, a door to understanding coffee opened.
Experience coffee roasting and brewing
Under the guidance of a coffee roaster, she experienced coffee roasting and learned about coffee roasting. Learn about coffee tasting and hand-brewed coffee, and under the guidance of a barista, make a cup of fine hand-brewed coffee by yourself.
Here, a cup of coffee becomes mellow after being honed naturally and artificially!
This time, she lived in the rainforest coffee garden and liked the air that blended with coffee, and felt that her dreams were fragrant. Sip a cup of coffee and watch the Pu'er clouds cirrus clouds; sunrise and sunset, whether it is one day or seven days. I just want to make such a time, slower, slower...
She mentioned this experience and said: To love it, you must understand it, if the experience on the tip of the tongue makes people think, then explore the story behind it to understand the true meaning. Go to the Manor of Arun for an all-encompassing experience and learn the mystery of coffee, two words: satisfaction.
