The Alishan region's high elevation, perpetual mist, and significant diurnal temperature variations create ideal conditions for coffee cultivation. Coupled with the expert cultivation and management by estate owner Mr. Yeh Shih-Yuan, the coffee cherries produced are full-bodied and of superior quality. In their very first competition, the estate received major awards across three different processing methods, and has continued to win awards in recent years. Ching Ye Estate is dedicated to promoting this excellent flavor internationally, allowing everyone to savor this taste of Taiwan.

In post-harvest processing, time and temperature significantly influence fermentation and flavor development. The estate owner adjusts these parameters based on years of cupping experience. Compared to previous natural process batches, this year's coffee is sweeter, with enhanced complexity while reducing muddiness and fermentation notes, returning to the coffee's beautiful essence – fruit flavor. In field management, Mr. Yeh collaborates closely with farmers, engaging in continuous communication and optimization. Cultivation follows a method akin to natural farming, with careful management of fertile and soft soil. Pruning of branches and leaves is done meticulously to nurture higher-quality coffee cherries, promoting vigorous growth. Shade trees are strategically planted according to the terrain to control sunlight intensity. Harvesters skillfully and gently pick deep red, ripe coffee cherries, preserving the optimal flavor within each bean. ---- A Note on Renaming: In 2025, Ching Ye Coffee Estate was officially renamed "Lian Cheng Ching Ye Coffee Estate" (聯合成青葉咖啡莊園). This renaming was not only for trademark registration practicalities but also holds a deeply personal family memory and emotion. The name "Lian Cheng" originates from a traditional neighborhood grocery store opened by the family in their early days, a shop that grew with the local community and a familiar name from their childhood. Now, as coffee becomes the estate owner's new landscape, they hope this spirit of connection from the past can continue to infuse the aroma of every cup of coffee. From a neighborhood store to a coffee estate, the name has changed, but the sentiment remains the same. https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/Alishan_Ching-Ye_Harvest_1200.jpg https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/Alishan_Ching-Ye_geisha_1200.jpg https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/Alishan_Ching-Ye_tastcoffee_1200.jpg ---- **Dabang Village Yin Shan Yu (達邦村 飲山郁) (Dabang Alishanwin)** Yin Shan Yu Estate's High-Mountain Coffee: A Masterpiece of Flavor Presentation In February of this year, the owner of Justin Coffee (JC咖啡) revisited the Yin Shan Yu Estate (Alishanwin) at an altitude of 1,450 meters. What greeted him were hundreds of coffee trees surrounding the estate. Despite a reduced harvest this year due to typhoons and pest infestations from the previous two years, Mr. Huang Chang-Sheng, the estate owner, upheld his craftsman's spirit, meticulously picking ripe cherries and tending to each coffee tree individually. This year, the estate skillfully leveraged the natural advantage of the high-altitude diurnal temperature difference, extending the natural sun-drying process. By employing anaerobic natural processing, the coffee's flavor has become richer and more complex, imbuing it with intense fruit notes. This Alishan coffee brought back by Justin Coffee (JC咖啡) comes from the Yin Shan Yu Estate in Dabang Village, Alishan, meticulously cultivated by "Top Young Farmer" Mr. Huang Chang-Sheng. This high-mountain tea estate cleverly interplants coffee trees with tea bushes, creating an ideal growing environment. Nurtured by the high-mountain climate and shaded conditions, the coffee beans mature slowly, developing sweet and full-bodied flavors. https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/Alishanwin-1.jpg https://shop.r10s.com/931/943/a72e/d039/80bc/aa76/a80b/1171ee8a640242ac110005.jpg Inheriting Traditional Craftsmanship, Crafting Specialty Coffee with Dedication Yin Shan Yu Estate not only continues the tradition of tea craftsmanship but also insists on using sun-drying methods for coffee post-processing. The coffee beans are naturally sun-dried in greenhouses, preserving their original essence and allowing the coffee itself to exhibit unique flavors and aromas. Mr. Huang Chang-Sheng, a master of tea-making techniques, has received honors such as: "Champion of the Chiayi County Alishan Tea Area Oolong Tea Production Competition," "Third Place in the National Oolong Tea Production Technology Competition," and "Fourth Top Young Farmer." His expertise and dedication to quality infuse Yin Shan Yu coffee with the essence of traditional tea making, creating a specialty coffee with a distinctly Taiwanese character. https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/Alishanwin-2.jpg https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/JC_Varieties_740.jpg **Arabica Geisha/Gesha Variety** Once named one of the "World's Top Ten Most Expensive Coffees" by Forbes, the Geisha/Gesha coffee is a legendary varietal in the specialty coffee world. There is considerable confusion surrounding the Geisha variety, as multiple genetically distinct plant types are referred to as Geisha, many with similar geographical origins in Ethiopia. Recent genetic diversity analysis by World Coffee Research has confirmed that the T2722 variety grown in Panama and its descendants are unique and consistent. When managed well in high-altitude regions, it correlates with extremely high cup quality and is known for its delicate floral, jasmine, and peach-like aromas. Regarding the naming of Geisha/Gesha coffee, the spellings Geisha and Gesha are often used interchangeably, stemming from phonetic transcription as there is no fixed translation from Ethiopian dialects to English. The coffee was initially recorded in planting records with the spelling Geisha, and for decades, coffee researchers and planting databases have largely maintained this spelling, leading to its initial promotion and use in the coffee industry. This variety was originally collected from a mountain in Ethiopia, the name of which is commonly translated into English as either Gesha or Geisha. **Arabica SL28 and SL34** Developed and named by Scott Laboratories in 1930, the unique Kenyan varieties SL28 and SL34 were born within well-established natural forest ecosystems. SL28 has a mixed lineage of French Mission, Mocha, and Yemen Typica. The initial goal in developing SL28 was to produce coffee beans in large quantities that were both high in quality and resistant to pests and diseases. Although SL28 did not achieve the expected large-scale yield, its copper-leaf color and fava bean-shaped beans possess excellent sweetness, balance, and complex, varied flavors, with distinct citrus and tamarind characteristics. SL34 has a similar flavor profile to SL28, with complex acidity and a great sweet finish. Its body is heavier, richer, and cleaner than SL28. SL34 has a lineage including French Mission, Bourbon, and more Typica. Its bean appearance is similar to SL28, but it is more tolerant of sudden heavy rainfall. https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/JC_Processing_740.jpg Coffee Processes This refers to the transformation of ripe red fruit into dried green beans. Each processing method has its advantages and disadvantages, influenced by the natural environment and specific needs of the origin. For this batch, the washed process is used, briefly described below. **【Natural Process】Natural / Sundried / Dry Processed** Also known as natural drying or non-washed processing, this method involves drying the harvested coffee cherries under the sun before hulling. During the prolonged sun-drying period, the beans absorb flavors from the skin and pulp, resulting in a fuller sweetness and body, and facilitating the creation of unique aromas. **【Honey Process】Honey / Pulped Natural / Semi-dry Process** This method falls between the natural and washed processes. After removing the skin and pulp, the mucilage layer is retained and dried under the sun. The term "honey" refers to the sticky mucilage layer, which is as viscous as honey. The mucilage layer retains a high proportion of sugars and acids, which is key to the honey process. The resulting flavors are between those of the natural and washed processes. **【Washed Process】Washed / Wet Processed** After removing the skin and pulp, the beans are soaked in fermentation tanks to remove the mucilage from the parchment layer. They are then washed with water, resulting in a bright acidity, one of the characteristics of specialty coffee. https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/JC_Roasting_740.jpg https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/JC_filter_740.jpg https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/JC_GoldCup_QRcode_740.jpg https://justincoffee.shop.rakuten.tw/gold/OtherDrive/JC_Pour_Over_Coffee.jpg Manufactured by Justin Enterprise Co., Ltd.
