187 The smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys
When there is happiness, it is supposed to be shared with others. In this way, your happiness will be passed on, and this happiness will be magnified a lot.
But today's matter, Lao Liu had to hold it back. I also have to tell these people that they should know about the coffee tasting today, and don't tell outsiders.
There are so many people who talk about it, and he's really afraid that Crane will know. In that case, he will definitely have more ways to target himself in the future.
After letting the big guys go out and do what they should do, he sat on the floor, hugged his daughter in his arms, and thought about how his coffee beans could be sold smoothly and at a good price.
It can be regarded as setting a small goal for yourself first, that is, your coffee beans must rush into the famous circle this year. Only if you have a foothold in that circle will you have a chance to make money.
Otherwise, if you expect to sell in Kenya, it would be good not to lose money with the intervention of Sunshine Company.
Harvey did bring him a lot of information, and he was also thinking about the sales plan for this coffee this time these nights.
The original idea was to contact the buyers of those large companies individually. Don't ask them to give too high a price, just be able to sell it smoothly.
But now that his coffee beans have given him a gorgeous makeover, and he has suddenly become so good, he has to re-evaluate this matter.
You still have to get in touch with those buyers, send them an invitation, invite them to come and taste the coffee, and see if they have a chance to give themselves a price.
The other way is to make your coffee beans famous. The easiest and most practical way to do this is to sign up for this year's African Harvest Season Flavor Cupping Competition, or TOH, organized by the African Coffee Association.
This event is considered the top event in the coffee industry in Africa, similar to the Extraordinary Cup held in Central and South America. To put it bluntly, if you can get a place in this event, then you can go sideways in the whole of Africa.
Thinking of this, he put his daughter aside again and let her play with the lions. ran upstairs and hugged all the materials that Harvey had brought to him. After searching for a while, I found out the relevant information about the TOH competition.
There are actually three famous events in the coffee world. The most famous is BOP, which stands for Best Panamanian Green Beans. The one that plays is a boutique, but that's Panama playing by itself, and it has nothing to do with him.
The other is the COE, which is the Extraordinary Cup. This is a worldwide event, and it is also a very valuable event. It's just that even if it's all over the world, most of them are representative estates of various countries.
It can be said that this stage is bigger, but the African region doesn't seem to plan to play with others. Even if he wants to play with others, they won't take him.
So at present, the only thing that can follow and participate in the next is this TOH.
The rules of this contest are also very clear, simply put, it is the first audition. If you pass the audition, you will be able to participate in the competition of the entire African country.
The judging criteria are also very high, based on the standards of the Specialty Coffee Association of America SCAA. Then the domestic and international judges will evaluate together.
Looking at the introduction above, Lao Liu's heart was hot.
It seems that as long as the selection time is not less than 80 points, it can meet the criteria for participating in the competition in the entire African region. Although it is uncertain how many points you can score for this coffee bean, it is definitely no problem to participate.
And with such a special taste, it's no problem to get into the top three, so you can step into the top coffee bean circle.
Then try to find a way next year to see if you can get mixed in with the COE and follow the competition. Or is it because of this special taste that your coffee is directly promoted to a famous product?
Happily fantasized for a while, and then pinched his thighs. Save yourself from being too happy, and then scare your baby girl.
Looking at the contact information below, the Kenya branch of the African Coffee Association is located in Nairobi. Go directly to get the registration form yourself, and then wait for the notification to take the coffee beans to participate in the audition.
I flipped it down again, and it seems that I really underestimated this coffee review that is only held in Africa. If you can win this championship, it will not be difficult to sell it for hundreds of dollars a pound. Even thousands of dollars, this is understandable.
The key is to see how well the dealers recognize your coffee beans, which will directly affect the auction price.
This is a must-have, and this is the only shortcut to making your coffee famous. Then he sent a message to Li Tongzhuo, go to Nairobi, if she is in the station, she can also buy some small gifts to visit.
It's pretty good, within five minutes of the message being sent, Li Tongzhuo replied with a question mark and a small expression.
In order to make communication smoother, Lao Liu directly sold his daughter. I took a picture of her playing with the lions and sent it over, and then I hugged my phone and waited.
"What are you going to do?"
This time, Li Tongzhuo replied with a voice.
"I want to see what you're doing, I'll go to Nairobi tomorrow and have a look at your station." My coffee beans are of good quality this year, and I'm going to compete in the African competition. ”
Lao Liu hurriedly sent a voice message.
After waiting for a while, Li Tongzhuo directly sent a video invitation. Give Lao Liu Lede, I almost gave it a bad time.
"Where's Xiao Miaomiao?" asked Li Tongzhuo after the video was connected.
"You're playing, I'll cut the camera over for you. Tomorrow will you have a rest? or which day will you rest these days, and then I'll be fine. Liu Wenrui asked.
"You don't have any bad ideas, do you?" asked Li Tongzhuo with some suspicion.
"Where is it, just go over and sign up, and then see you. I've been doing this favor during this time, and I've finally finished picking coffee berries. Liu Wenrui hurriedly said.
"Last time you said you had a chance to come and have a look, and this time you were busy. Why don't you come back with me tomorrow? You'll have to pick for a few days, but it's not as productive as the previous days. ”
Li Tongzhuo wrinkled his nose, instinctively thinking that this product was trying to kidnap him. However, she is also very interested in watching the picking and processing of coffee berries.
"Oh, no matter how busy you are at work, you have to relax. Just decide, I'll leave early tomorrow and I'll pick you up. If you don't feel at ease, you can bring that Chen and that with you, or any of your other friends. Seeing that there was a door, Lao Liu hurriedly continued.
"I've got a really good coffee this year, I'll make you a cup myself. There may be some gaps with the Blue Mountains and cat, but I think it's really not bad. ”
"You just blow it. Li Tongzhuo gave him a blank look.
"Also, what is Chen, people have a name, is it okay to call Chen Feilong? But he really can't go. He hasn't come back from his mission yet, so I envy him. ”
"Hey, great. ”
Lao Liu was stupidly happy.
Li Tongzhuo glared at him.
"Well, I mean, it's great if you could come over and play. How many people? If my car doesn't fit, I'll bring another one. Lao Liu hurriedly said.
"Just me and Daisy, she's postponed again. Are you sure you don't have a bad idea?" asked Li Tongzhuo cautiously.
"I really didn't fight. Lao Liu said reassuringly.
"You know, I've been a little aggrieved lately, and I don't have anyone to talk to me. Now that I can finally be lighter, I want to have a good liveliness. ”
"Okay, give the phone to Xiao Miaomiao, I'm going to play with the little guy for a while. Li Tongzhuo said.
Lao Liu sent his mobile phone to his daughter, and it was called a beauty in his heart.
I have just set a small goal, and my coffee beans are going to step into the famous circle. Now he has set a small goal for himself, this time he will take Li Tongzhuo over to play, and he must improve the relationship between the two.
How can it be that there is no crooked idea, that is, this idea is not too crooked, and it will not use any illegal means.
Then he sat aside, hugged the little monkey baby into his arms, and watched Xiao Miaomiao and Li Tongzhuo chat. Even if it's not him who is chatting, it's good to take a look and listen.
"What are you doing?"
Li Tongzhuo and Xiao Miaomiao chatted for a while, and said coldly.
Lao Liu leaned his head over, "I'm staying on the side." ”
"Why do you always think you're weird?" Li Tongzhuo frowned.
"I'm not blamed, not at all. But this is my home, I'm not staying here, what am I going to do? Lao Liu said with a wry smile.
Li Tongzhuo rolled his eyes, "Do whatever you like, you hide on the side, you always feel panicked." ”
"Okay, okay, I'm going to fry the coffee beans. Wait for you to come over tomorrow and take a good taste for me to see if I can get the first place. Lao Liu said with a smile.
Then you really get up and go to the kitchen, and you have to keep your promises. Anyway, I'll be able to see the living tomorrow, so it's not bad for a few hours.
I've tasted all the fried ones just now, and I'm going to pick up Li Tongzhuo tomorrow, and I have to have good coffee to entertain me.
He was wondering if his bad luck had dispersed, and he was going to embark on the fast track to a happy life. This may be the real person who is in good spirits at happy events, and it is much more refreshing than when I first bought the farm.
The aroma of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, and their coffee beans are indeed very good. But it must also be provided with a platform to show its own value.
For this African harvest season flavor coffee cupping competition, he is even more looking forward to it.
