In 1892, French missionaries successfully planted coffee in a place called Zhukula in Yunnan, and the drink that swept the Western world took root on Chinese mainland. Zhu Kula still has coffee trees that are more than 100 years old, but the missionaries who planted them at that time would not have thought that a hundred years later, when Zhu Kula was gradually forgotten, the coffee tree became a forest in a place called Lujiangba, and became one of the best coffee quality in China and the world. Moreover, the coffee with the brand of "Yunnan Baoshan Lujiang small Grain Coffee" has become a national geographical indication product, and its taste is highly appraised as comparable to the world-famous Blue Mountain Coffee.

As early as the 1950s, Baoshan small grain coffee, which had just been planted and harvested, was rated as first-class in the London market and won the laudatory name of "Lujiang No.1". At the National Coffee Conference in 1980, small-grain coffee was recognized as "the top coffee in the country". At the World Coffee Competition held in Brussels, Belgium in 1993, Lujiang small Coffee won the World Eureka Gold Award.

The two most popular drinks in the world, tea and coffee, are the contribution of the magical land of Yunnan to the world. Tea originated in China, and it is natural for Yunnan tea to have excellent quality, but why can coffee, a plant originally produced in Africa, take root and sprout in Lujiangba, southwest China, thousands of miles away, and its quality is still outstanding? This requires a more perfect opportunity.

The relationship between Lujiangba and coffee has been going on for decades. Like tea trees, coffee is also a plant that is extremely picky about the environment, and its quality is closely related to the geographical environment. The best growing environment is low latitude, high altitude, sufficient rainfall and suitable sunshine. it is an ideal growing zone for coffee between 15 °north latitude and the Tropic of Cancer. But other areas in this zone, such as Hawaii and Saudi Arabia in the United States, or low altitude or little rain in the desert, are not conducive to coffee growth, and only southern Yunnan in this zone has these conditions. On the other hand, the Lujiang Dam on the west bank of the Nujiang River is backed by Gaoligong Mountain and faces the Hengduan Mountain. Because the warm air from the south is easy to enter and difficult to get out, and the air entering from Gaoligong Mountain to the west has obvious warming and dehumidification effect, a dry and hot valley climate is formed. Here, there is sufficient sunshine, evaporation is greater than rainfall, and there is a large temperature difference between day and night, which is especially suitable for coffee growth and nutrient accumulation.

The connection of coffee to Lujiangba may come from accident, but the sublimation of its quality requires coffee practitioners to water it with sweat for a long time, and to domesticate and manage it with wisdom. Lujiang coffee has set a world record of 400 kg per unit area, and the cultivation and management techniques of coffee plantations have also been rated as world-class by experts. After visiting the coffee garden of Lujiang Farm, the coffee expert of the United Nations Planning and Development Program once said, "I have seen countless coffee plantations in the world. The management here is world-class, and the per unit yield is also the highest." International Coffee Organization tasting experts have also rated Yunnan coffee as the highest quality coffee in the world, such as Colombian wet-processed small-grain coffee.

Today, Lujiang small-grain coffee in Longyang District has become a symbol of high-quality coffee in Yunnan, with a planting area of up to 200000 mu and famous products emerge in endlessly. Throughout the Lujiang Canyon, coffee gardens are all over the hillside. Every year, when the flowers bloom and the coffee is ripe, the coffee garden is like a huge garden, welcoming tourists from all directions. Traveling to Longyang, Changyou Coffee Garden, tasting small grains of coffee and buying coffee products are an integral part of Longyang's indulgent trip. Among the mellow and moist Baoshan Coffee, Yunzhai Coffee, Xinzhai Coffee, Beaton Coffee and Hemei Coffee are all outstanding coffee brands in China. After the fragrance of famous tea in the world, it is the right time for Baoshan "famous coffee" to keep pace with it.
