關於咖啡 About Coffee

一杯好的咖啡，來自好品質的咖啡豆，再藉由不同程度的烘焙，帶出不同的口感，而基本的分辨法是，豆子烘烤的時間越長，酸味越淡，咖啡因含量也越少，可依個人喜好來選擇最適合的好喝咖啡。

The texture and flavor of a good cup of coffee depends both on the quality of the coffee beans, and the degree to which they are roasted. Another basic rule to follow is that the longer the roast, the less acidic and less caffeinated the coffee will be.Somewhere in-between lies a perfect cup to suit any individual’s taste.

來自屏東的咖啡 Coffee from Pingtung

屏東原鄉種植咖啡豆的歷史，可上溯至日據時代，1902年日本政府在恆春設立熱帶植物殖育場（今林業試驗所恆春研究中心）開始咖啡栽種試驗，可以說第一株原生種咖啡樹就在屏東，此後至1929年間展開臺灣各地的咖啡試種。

屏東咖啡大多種植於中央山脈的大武山系，也就是集中在屏東縣東側的原住民鄉山區- 三地門鄉、霧臺鄉、瑪家鄉、泰武鄉、來義鄉、春日鄉、獅子鄉。由於不同土壤、不同氣候等微地形影響，生長出的咖啡豆也各具有獨特的風味。

The history of coffee bean cultivation in Pingtung County dates back to the Japanese occupation of the island. It was in 1902 when the visiting government founded the Hengchun Tropical Botanical Gardens (today the Hengchun Research Center of the Taiwan Forestry Research institute) and started experimenting with growing coffee. The very first coffee tree in Taiwan was thus planted right here in Pingtung, after which cultivation continued to spread to other regions in Taiwan up until 1929.

In recent years, Pingtung coffee has mainly been grown at the Dawu section of the Central Mountain Range, situated in the east of Pingtung county and incorporating the traditionally aboriginal-inhabited townships of Sandimen, Wutai, Majia, Taiwu, Liayi, Chunri, and Shizi. Despite their proximity, variations in soil type, climate and topography ensure that coffee beans produced in each of these areas boasts their own unique taste and aroma.
