It is understood that Yunnan, as the birthplace of Chinese coffee, the history of coffee cultivation can be traced back to 1892. French missionaries brought coffee to Yunnan from abroad and successfully planted it in Zhukula Village, Binchuan County. More than 30 coffee plants of this batch of coffee seeds are still blooming and bearing fruit. Yunnan's unique natural conditions have formed the unique quality of Yunnan small-grain coffee, which is "strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly fruity". At present, the planting area of coffee in our province is 1.77 million mu, with a total output of 139000 tons, accounting for more than 99% of the country's total. Yunnan has gradually become a major coffee producing area in Asia, and it is also an important region for the world coffee giants to lay out the Chinese and even Asian markets.
