2013年世界咖啡师大赛台湾赛区(TBC )冠军简嘉诚(英文名字Bruce Lee)在这一年到访了九十+的瑰夏庄园,在品尝了瑰夏的咖啡鲜果之后竟然让他联想到了他种植在自己后院里的荔枝果。嘉诚对于荔枝的联想让九十+很快把荔枝的英文单词”Lychee”中开头的两个字母”Ly”作为这款咖啡名称的第一个组成部分。
然后考虑到咖啡名称后面的组成部分,Steve又取用了大提琴的英文单词”cello”,这是因为有一次碰巧听到了天才大提琴演奏家——Yo Yo Ma的演奏,他对于大提琴精湛的演奏以及对于演奏技术的认真钻研深深地感染到我们,也让九十+想到自己对于咖啡认真和钻研的态度,所以把他名字中的”o”作为咖啡名称的第三部分。这就是这款咖啡名称”Ly-cell-o”的由来。

Lycello W2 L21
Bruce Lee, current barista champion of Taiwan, visited Ninety Plus Gesha Estates this year and tasted gesha cherries which reminded him of the Lychee fruit that grows in his backyard. Bruce’s connection to Lychee inspired a portion of this profile’s name. The “cello” in the name, after the string instrument, was the second part of our inspiration. While considering the name of this coffee, we happened to be listening to the talented cellist Yo Yo Ma, and his precise and focused technique inspired us to the name Lycello (lay-chell’-o). Lycello showcases the softest lemon, thyme, basil and gesha flavor.
