For Chinese people, coffee seems to have an innate exotic temperament and has been labeled as "imported." However, Made in China's Yunnan coffee production already accounts for a share of the world's total coffee production, and most of the raw materials of coffee brands such as McDonnell and Nestl é come from this. Yunnan small seed coffee has been rated as "the best coffee in the world" by world-class coffee experts for many times.

Anyone who has drunk Yunnan small-grain coffee knows that it has uniform and full particles, moderate acidity, fresh smell, fruity flavor, mellow taste, strong but not strong. Next, let's explore the secret of Yunnan small-grain coffee.

At present, the variety with the highest proportion of planting in Yunnan is Katim Catimor, a variant of the Arabian original species, which is an improved variety of tin card seed, with 25% Robusta gene.

From the botanical point of view of coffee, Yunnan small seed coffee is genetically close to the recognized best blue mountains in Jamaica (Jamaica Blue Mountain) and Kona in Hawaii.

Coffee has extremely stringent requirements for growth conditions, regardless of humidity, dimension, altitude will affect the coffee flavor. The main producing areas of small seed species are Pu'er, Xishuangbanna, Wenshan, Baoshan, Dehong, Lincang and other places, which are very similar to the world-famous coffee producing areas such as Colombia and Jamaica: long light time, low latitude, high altitude, large temperature difference between day and night, the small seed coffee produced has moderate sour taste, rich and mellow taste, uniform particles, more oil and fruity aroma.

Yunnan Baoshan Lujiang small grain coffee is more comparable to the world-famous Blue Mountain Coffee. It is a national geographical indication product and has been rated as one of the best quality coffee in the country and in the world.

In the early days, coffee beans were mainly treated by washing. However, with the continuous improvement of the reputation of small seed coffee, Yunnan began to have some special methods, such as sun exposure, honey treatment, red wine treatment and so on.

These treatments not only increase the tonality and sweetness of the fruit for beans, but also mask the herbal flavor of catimor to a certain extent, and make the flavor of coffee fuller.

As the largest coffee origin in China, Yunnan has a history of coffee cultivation and development for only more than 100 years. Now Ecom, Starbucks, Arabica Star, Wall Coffee and other major coffee companies have set up branches here. It is believed that Yunnan coffee will go further and further under the tide of fine coffee in the world.
