Coming to Shanghai, hehe, the bullet shells are coming to the annual meeting, stinky fart, and please give time and space to the bullet shells, because the bullet shells have been busy working as fools throughout 2015...... Of course, no matter where you go, the most important thing is to work hard to code words, make progress every day, love readers, and love life. After the report, ask for a ticket****

Vincent laughed and said: "Don't worry, this is the real Blue Mountain coffee beans, and I specially asked a friend in the customs to help me get it when I got your call saying that I wanted to come over, why, you don't trust my resources in the customs?" ”

Qin Shiou shrugged his shoulders and said that he naturally trusted, Vincent patted him on the shoulder and said, "Believe me, Qin, this is pure Blue Mountain coffee, you taste it carefully when you drink it later, I believe you will eventually find out." And to be honest, I prepared the Blue Mountain coffee beans to entertain you, which really took a lot of work. ”

Vincent prepared NO.1peaberry, which is the best Blue Mountain coffee bean, the reason why he said it was specially prepared to entertain Qin Shiou, because this coffee bean has a nickname also known as pearl bean, which is a small round bean carefully selected in the product at an altitude of 2100 meters, the best of the best.

Usually in the fishing grounds, Qin Shiou generally drinks boiled water, if he has to drink drinks, he will choose milk in the morning and juice in the afternoon, and rarely drink coffee, so there is not much research on coffee. However, Winnie's university course has a special tasting of coffee, and occasionally she will introduce some relevant knowledge to Qin Shiou.

Entering the reception room of the flagship store, someone is grinding coffee beans, and this person looks seven or eight points like the big star Tom Hanks. It is the general manager of this flagship store, Cassel Redcas.

Because Qin Shiou and Liv are closer, Liv is usually responsible for the work of receiving him. But under normal circumstances, Cassel, who is the manager of this store, will also show up to talk to him, and he has not seen him today. He thought that Cassel had been transferred, and Vincent himself came to the flagship store to take charge, and it turned out that this guy was grinding coffee.

Seeing this, Qin Shiou said politely: "I'm afraid the coffee I drank today is the most expensive coffee in the United States, and this labor cost alone is enough to buy ten ounces of top-grade coffee beans." ”

Vincent smiled: "That's really the case, Qin, maybe I have to reintroduce it to you." Mr. Reddicas had spent a lot of time at Tiffany & Co. in Brazil, and he has a particularly high level of skill in grinding coffee, and as far as I know, there is only God around me who can do this better than him! ”

Kassel humbled himself a few words, and Qin Shiou diverted the topic and asked, "How long has this coffee bean been roasted?" ”

Vincent said, "About one hundred and fifty hours, right?" I calculated your itinerary before I arranged for a friend to help buy these coffee beans. ”

Coffee beans are different from other foods, they have a shelf life and a shelf life, like this case of whole coffee beans, its shelf life is about seven days, including from the third to the seventh day. The flavors are starting to peak and this is when the coffee is at its best.

Seven days later until a year later, this time is the expiration date of the coffee beans, and you can drink it. But it doesn't taste good, and the taste begins to fade slowly.

In the past, when transportation was inconvenient, tasting fresh coffee was the top enjoyment of the upper class in Europe and the United States. At that time, there was an 8-15 day rule, that is, pearl beans roasted within 8 days were the best to drink. Between 8 and 15 days is subordinate, and more than 15 days. The beans can be thrown away.

In half a month, the aromatic substances in the coffee will basically run out, and then the coffee will only have a sour and bitter taste, and the nobles and elites of the upper class, who regard themselves very highly, naturally disdain to drink such coffee.

When Qin Shiou came in, there was a pot of coffee already boiling on the gurgling, once the coffee beans were ground into powder, they had to be boiled quickly, due to the geometric increase in the contact area, the aromatic hydrocarbon substances in the coffee beans would be emitted faster, and it was usually thought that the aroma of the coffee would disappear after an hour.

As the coffee boils, the aroma of Blue Mountain coffee is transmitted, this aroma is not the slightly bitter aroma of ordinary coffee beans, although it is still so strong, but it is mixed with a little bit of fruity flavor, which is the characteristic of Blue Mountain coffee.

This coffee is a perfect blend of the unique sour, bitter, sweet and mellow flavors of the coffee beans, and the old European aristocrats called this aroma 'strong and seductive elegance', which is very different from other coffees.

Qin Shiou and Vincent chatted casually, Vincent became excited after learning that he liked basketball, and said: "I also like basketball, look, I still have a photo with Jordan here, and his two favorite earrings are made for him." ”

As he spoke, Vincent took out his mobile phone and pulled up a photo, in which there were other celebrities, Kobe, James, Durant, Curry, etc., or veteran superstars or popular spicy chickens, there was no shortage of them.

Qin Shiou browsed the photos, Vincent would tell the story of his relationship with these stars, and when he talked about melon Anthony, he sighed: "Our family is a die-hard fan of the New York Knicks, and my dad buys the Knicks' season tickets early every year, but unfortunately the development of the Knicks over the years has been too disappointing." ”

Qin Shiou had no choice but to comfort him and said: "We have an ancient Chinese saying called No Ji Tailai, isn't there still a word that is very famous now?" Bottoming out, right? I believe the Knicks will have an explosive period. ”

Vincent laughed at himself and said, "I hope so, I think so too, but I don't know, the damn Knicks team is really the bottom limit, they always keep refreshing the lower limit of our fans' cognition, I'm really afraid this is not their bottom limit." ”

When the coffee was cooked, Cassel brought two cups of steaming coffee, and then he said, "Do you want to watch the finals?" I happen to have a few tickets for the NBA Finals, but it's not a VIP room, it's just an ordinary front row ticket, is Mr. Qin interested? ”

Qin Shiou stirred the coffee with a spoon and smiled happily: "Of course, of course I want to go to the finals, but," he said depressedly, "I guess I can't go, summer is coming, I have to get busy." ”

Not to mention the problem of fish production, let's just say that on the side of the fishing alliance, in the summer, it is better to catch some seaweed and aquatic plants to make feed, so he will not be able to go at all.

Depressed, he took a sip of coffee, when he was in China, he drank instant coffee, a pack of one dollar or two dollars a pack, and he felt that it was the same thing, nothing to drink. After arriving at Farewell Island, he began to drink ground coffee, and only then did he realize why these gringos like to drink coffee so much, and hand-ground fresh coffee does taste good!

Blue Mountain Coffee is the best in it, after the coffee is entered, not only the rich mellow taste, but also the soft and slightly sweet fruit like fruit acidity, these gray-black liquids flow through the taste buds, quickly conquer them. (To be continued.) )
