Characteristics of Coffee in Yunnan

Due to the unique geographical environment and climatic conditions, Yunnan coffee has formed a unique flavor of strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, with a little fruit flavor. World-class coffee experts evaluate it as a good coffee in the world, and its cultivation techniques and per unit yield are also world-class. Yunnan coffee is a variant of Arabian original species, which is generally known as Yunnan small-grain coffee, evergreen shrub, with small nuts, thick peel, sweet pulp, mellow products and low coffee content, so it is also called light coffee. It is the main cultivated variety in the world.

The quality of coffee depends on many factors, such as growing environment, climate, cultivation and management techniques and so on. Its excellent growth environment is low latitude, high altitude, sufficient rainfall and suitable sunshine, so the north latitude is 15. The ideal growing area for coffee is between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Cancer. Our planting base in Yunnan is located in 23 ℃ north latitude and 99 ℃ east longitude, with an elevation of 1230 meters, a height of 1540 meters, a height difference of 310 meters, a topography of mountains and slopes, and a large undulation, fertile soil, sufficient sunshine, rich rainfall and large temperature difference between day and night, these unique natural conditions have formed the special taste of Yunnan coffee-thick but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly fruity, and the quality is similar to Colombian small grain coffee. Coffee fresh fruit is generally picked from November to February of the following year and processed by washing and wetting. Advanced imported equipment is used in coffee processing. At present, 30% of Yunnan coffee products are supplied to the domestic market and 70% are sold abroad.

Of course, if it is used to make instant coffee or general commercial beans, high-yield catimor is a good choice, but if you want to look for Yunnan specialty coffee, then the old variety of iron pickup has become the first choice because of its congenital excellent genes. Therefore, this trip to Yunnan also followed the trail of the old varieties. But the reality is really cruel. Before going, Brother Zou told me that there was an old variety in his relative's house, but what he saw excitedly was a crazy growing coffee forest, which belonged to his aunt. Because the aunt was too old and did not have the strength to replant and renovate-- these old varieties survived, but the aunt was unable to manage it alone, so he let the tree grow naturally and pick some fruit when it was ripe.

Typica: the most classic high-quality Arabica species, which is derived from many commercial improvements at present. It has excellent taste and is recognized as a boutique coffee variety, but its yield is very low and it is vulnerable to rust, so more manpower management is needed. Tieka Coffee, native to Ethiopia and southeastern Sudan, is the most widely cultivated variety of coffee in the Western Hemisphere. The plant is stronger, but not light-tolerant, and the yield is higher in Hawaii. The top leaf of the iron pickup is red copper, which is called red top coffee.
