All the coffee beans grown in Yunnan are Arabica coffee beans. The varieties were first introduced in 1892 in Zhukula area, Pingchuan Town, Binchuan County, Dali Prefecture, Yunnan Province. Arabica bourbon and Arabica Tippica coffee beans were introduced. Kenya Katimo (Arabica and Robusta) was introduced in 1991, which belongs to Arabica small variety beans. As the earliest bourbon and tin khaki beans are small, commonly known as small-grain coffee beans, coupled with the production of Yunnan, so later generations will produce coffee beans in Yunnan, collectively known as Yunnan small-grain coffee. At present, there are three coffee varieties in Yunnan: bourbon, Tippika and Katimo (variety), and the main producing areas are Lincang, Baoshan, Simao, Xishuangbanna and Dehong Prefecture.

Small-grain coffee is suitable for growing in the mountains at an altitude of 800 to 1800 meters. If the altitude is too high, it will taste sour, and if it is too low, it will taste bitter. Small grains of coffee are mostly planted in dry and hot valleys about 1100 meters above sea level, so they are moderately sour, rich and mellow. There is a unique environment suitable for the growth of small seed coffee in many areas of Yunnan, and the quality of small seed coffee is excellent.

The planting areas are mainly distributed in Lincang, Baoshan, Simao, Xishuangbanna, Dehong and other states.

The average temperature of Lujiangba in Baoshan is 21.5℃, and the highest is 40.4 ℃, which is basically frost-free all the year round. It is recognized as the best producing area of small-grain coffee. The small-grain coffee cultivated here is famous at home and abroad for its strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, well-proportioned small noodles, mellow and fruity.

After inspecting the coffee planting and primary processing base in Yunnan, international coffee organization tasting experts rated Yunnan coffee as the kind of small seed coffee processed by Colombian wet processing, which is the highest quality coffee in the world.
