II. Catucai and Icatu, a variety unique to Brazil

Icatu

Selection developed by crossing Robusta and Arabica (Bourbon) followed by backcrossing to Mundo Novo, characterised by increased resistance to leaf rust, high yield and good quality.

Selection crossing: artificial hybridization (the process of mating between organisms of different genotypes)

Backcrossing: backcross (refers to the cross between a hybrid and one of its parents. In breeding, backcross is often used to enhance the character performance of hybrid individuals)

After a search to get the above information, we have a preliminary understanding of Icatu's life experience: in order to strengthen the resistance to leaf rust and the need for high yield, there is a new generation of Icatu.

Catucai

Catucai is a cross between Icatu and Catuai, existing in yellow and red form. It is a hardy variety resistant to leaf rust and characterised by vigorous growth and high productivity. Yellow and red Catucai are small in statue, with red Catucai being slightly taller, and suitable to areas subjected to moderate water deficit.

Now I finally have the feeling of seeing the sun through the clouds. It turns out that this "dish" is really CAI. Its parents are Ikatu and Kaduai. The skin color has yellow and red, petite physique but has a good adaptability, strong and resistant to drought.

Low acidity, full body, delicate sweet taste with a floral note on the aroma.

Catucai, a native of Camocim Manor in Brazil, has the inherent sweetness, soft acidity and floral aroma of Brazilian coffee beans.

three。 Summary | Let's go back to the main body of this article, Bai Hua with tragic stories.

As the COE Sunshine bidding batch ranked first in the semi-finals, in the final round of qualifying for the top 10, the judges drank an obvious flaw in one of the drinks and stopped at the final.

The defective flavor is suspected to be "medicinal" and is easily reminiscent of the famous Brazilian defective flavor: Rioy.

In any case, Bai Hua's excellent performance in the first two rounds of the 2016 Brazilian COE made the East and West judges with different taste preferences give him high scores and kept the lead until the semi-finals. although the final result was sob, it is undeniable that this is an excellent sun bean with the strength. Don't you want to try such a legendary Brazilian bean?
