BEIJING<\/span><\/span>, July 29, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — The second “Taste of China” Global Specialty Green Coffee Bean Competition concluded on Sunday in Shanghai<\/span>, showcasing the taste preferences of Chinese coffee consumers to the global market.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Hosted by Hongqiao International Coffee Harbor, the two-day event evaluated about 82 premium coffee beans from 16 countries.<\/p>\n

Unlike traditional Western or Southeast Asian markets, Chinese consumers have distinct preferences for green coffee beans. Despite a rapid surge in coffee imports in recent years, many overseas producers remain unfamiliar with these domestic tastes.<\/p>\n

Since its debut, the competition has received strong support from the embassies and consulates of major coffee-producing countries in Shanghai<\/span>, along with their respective specialty coffee associations.<\/p>\n

This year’s event featured coffee beans from renowned coffee-growing regions such as Brazil<\/span>, Ethiopia<\/span>, Colombia<\/span>, and Vietnam<\/span>, emerging regions including Thailand<\/span>, El Salvador<\/span>, Ecuador<\/span>, and Burundi<\/span>, and China’s<\/span> key producing areas like Yunnan<\/span> and Hainan<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The judging panel included R&D and training heads from top coffee chains such as Luckin Coffee, Starbucks, and Cotti Coffee<\/span>, national champions of brewing and cupping competitions, and coffee enthusiasts from across the country.<\/p>\n

The result of the competition reflects Chinese consumer taste trends, providing valuable data for producers and roasters to better align with domestic market demands.<\/p>\n

For the first time, the top ten coffees were auctioned both online and offline, attracting interest from roasters, caf\u00e9 owners, and coffee enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

In addition, the top 30 winning coffees are set to embark on a nationwide cupping tour across major cities in China<\/span>. The final “Most Popular Coffee Award” will be announced after the tour, based on public feedback.<\/p>\n

Hongqiao International Coffee Harbor, the competition organizer, currently partners with over 200 international coffee enterprises, sourcing products from 60 countries and generating over 3 billion yuan<\/span> in annual trade.<\/p>\n
