The natural variety of bourbon tree: Kaddura

If you don't read coffee very often, you may see such names as bourbon / bourbon bourbon, yellow bourbon yellowbourbon, Kaddura Caturra, Kaduai Catuai, iron pickup Typica and so on. These are all different varieties of Arabica coffee. There may be a lot of ambiguity among people who are not clear. In fact, I am not a botanist or coffee expert, so like a great master, I am a bit ambiguous. So to study, thank you for the omnipotent collection to provide us with a lot of capital, so access to a part of information, slowly share with the master.

Kaddura (Caturra), a natural variety of bourbon in Arabica, was discovered in Brazil in 1937. Its tree is not as tall as bourbon and is doubly short. Because of the pedigree of bourbon, the resistance is weak, but the output is higher than that of bourbon. Although found in Brazil, Kaddura is not suitable for development in Brazil, so it is not planted on a large scale in Brazil, but is widely popular in China. For example, Colombia, Costa Rica and Nicaragua are all planted in large areas of Kaddura.

Compared with these botanical characteristics, the great master may be more concerned about the taste of Kaddura. For the address planted in Kaddura, the higher the altitude, the higher the quality, but the corresponding yield is also less. Kaddura light baking, sour spray aroma is obvious, the whole bright, properly handled sweetness can be implied is very good, but coffee mellow compared with bourbon is relatively low, the taste of the lack of clean level.

The red pulp of all Kaddura is not beautiful, but there are also very few yellow Kaddura. For example, Hawaii has a little yellow Kaddura.
