Yunnan Pu'er Region Washed SL28 with Bright, Clean, and Transparent Lemon-Citrus Acidity

FrontStreet Coffee - Yunnan Washed Coffee Introduction

For coffee, cupping is undoubtedly the most intuitive way to experience a particular bean. Understanding a growing region's cultivation and optimal processing methods involves extensively tasting coffees from that region, complemented by observing farm processing conditions, and understanding how altitude, cultivation, and processing affect coffee flavor.

In recent years, with the development of specialty coffee, the entire industry chain has increasingly focused on coffee quality. Yunnan coffee quality has become increasingly impressive, from the 86-point natural processed Baoshan to the 86-point washed Dehong, and this year's competition entry from Yunnan's Ruru Estate in Pu'er - all showing us the potential of Yunnan coffee.

Yunnan growing region: China's coffee harvesting season runs from October to February each year. Coffee is primarily grown in relatively primitive forest areas with poor road conditions and harsh environments. Coffee farmers often say: "Growing coffee takes time, there's no rushing." This year, Yunnan's coffee beans fell sharply with the New York Coffee Exchange futures, making harvesting unprofitable. Only those farmers who years ago started the slow journey of improving quality are now beginning to benefit. In the specialty coffee market, I believe that coffee professionals who rely on quality and understand that excellence takes time will gradually gain market recognition. Let's take it slow together.

Kenya's Introduction of SL28

SL28 is a hybrid variety cultivated in Kenya to improve coffee's disease resistance and yield, with mixed lineage from French Mission, Mocha, and Yemeni Typica. Now Yunnan has also introduced SL28 variety coffee cultivation.

Bright acidity, clean and transparent, with a refreshing sweet aftertaste - this is our impression of this Yunnan washed coffee. Grown in the forests of Pu'er at 1320 meters altitude, each sip feels like returning to the fresh and charming air after an all-night rain, making one savor its leisurely sweetness.
