Special note: Bourbon beans are native to Bourbon Island or Ethiopia and are susceptible to pests and diseases and produce lower yields. There is some data suggesting that yellow bourbon yields more than red bourbon and orange bourbon, but red bourbon is the most popular variety. Bourbon species are closely related to SL28, Typica, and Cattura. Because it yields less under the right conditions, it tends to produce very high-quality cups (there is evidence that lower yields tend to produce higher quality because plants can absorb nutrients more efficiently from the soil). The typical bourbon is characterized by low body, balanced, and pronounced sweetness in the cup, making it a good base for espresso blends.

For example: Brazil Fazenda Cachoeira Bourbon,

El Salvador Finca La Fany Bourbon,

Rwanda Murambi Bourbon,

El Salvador La Ilusion Bourbon
