What Do You Know About Your Cup of Joe?

Coffee is an interesting drink in itself, so how much do you know about your cup of Joe?

First of all, coffee is grown on a tree that produces a fruit that looks like cherries. These are often called coffee berries or coffee cherries, and they do have to turn red before they can be picked. When these berries are opened, they will contain two coffee beans. After the coffee beans have been picked, they do need to be fermented to remove the mucilaginous layer covering. If this layer is not removed, it will dramatically affect the taste of the coffee beans for the worse.

Each coffee bean that is harvested will taste different depending on the region that it was grown in. Some factors that affect the taste of the coffee beans are altitude, soil quality, rainfall, and processing. It is always preferable to choose coffee beans that are grown at a higher altitude, like the Jamaican Blue Mountain Estate Coffee Beans, because it will allow the flavors to develop more deeply and slowly so that there is more complexity and robustness in the final product.
