Coffee producing area-- Reunion
In 1715, the first coffee trees (about 40) were transported from the Yemeni port of Moka to La R é union, but unfortunately only two survived. By 1719, coffee plantations had flourished and the first beans were sold. Over the next few years, the government took a hard measure: the islanders, black and white, had to plant 100 coffee trees a year. The law was amended in 1723 to emphasize that all slaves must plant 200 mocha coffee trees a year and that anyone who damaged the coffee tree should be put to death.
At that time, the island was still a French colony, called Bourbon, where coffee was produced and Arabian coffee trees shipped from the area to other countries had a name.
Interestingly, today, "bourbon" Arabian coffee trees have been widely cultivated and favored around the world, but almost no coffee is grown in Reunion. Here are the general characteristics of bourbon coffee.

Coffee producing area-Philippines
Coffee was introduced into the Philippines (Philippines) in the early 19 th century, and by 1880 the country had become the world's fourth largest coffee exporter. However, due to the spread of coffee rust, the country became a coffee importer soon after 1880. However, the coffee growing industry has gradually recovered. Today, after slow and steady development, the country's coffee industry continues to grow and develop high-quality varieties.
