Small fruit coffee (scientific name: Coffea arabica), also known as Arabica (Arabica), is the most traditional Arabica coffee variety. Originally from East Africa, coffee was monopolized by the Arab world for a long time before the 15th century, so it was called "Arabian coffee" by Europeans.

It turns out that all the commercial coffee in the world is small fruit coffee, but it was only at the end of the 19th century that growers began to look for other disease-resistant varieties. At present, small fruit coffee is still the main variety of coffee, accounting for about 3% and 4% of the world's total coffee output. It is mainly grown in Latin American countries, but also partly in Indonesia and the Pacific islands.

At present, the geographical and climatic conditions of Brazil, the largest coffee producer in the world, are very suitable for the growth of small fruit coffee, and the main varieties of coffee planted are also small fruit coffee. Brazil's coffee production accounts for more than 1% of the world's total output.

The fruit of small fruit coffee is smaller than that of medium fruit coffee and large fruit coffee. The berries are oval and generally have two seeds, the so-called "coffee beans". Xiaoguo coffee is suitable for the growth of volcanic geological soil with a growth temperature of about 20 ℃ and an altitude of 600m.

Coffee, one of the three largest beverage plants in the world. The most common in the coffee family is this round little red fruit-small fruit coffee.

Large shrubs or small trees of the genus coffea ArabicaL., Rubiaceae, 8 m high, leaves thinly leathery, ovate-lanceolate, 6 ~ 14 cm long and 3.5 ~ 5 cm wide; leaf margin entire, shallowly undulate; Cymes clustered in leaf axils, Corolla white; berries red at maturity, oval, 12 ~ 16 mm long and 10 ~ 12 mm in diameter.

The fruit of small fruit coffee is smaller than that of medium fruit coffee and large fruit coffee. The berries are oval and generally have two seeds, the so-called "coffee beans". Small fruit coffee is the most widely cultivated species in the genus Coffea. because of its strong cold resistance and short-term low temperature tolerance, it can grow in mountains at an altitude of 2100 meters in tropical areas, but its disease resistance is relatively weak; the fruit is easy to fall off after ripening; after processing, the coffee is mellow and contains low caffeine.

Coffee is native to tropical regions of northern and central Africa and is now mainly grown in tropical regions of Latin America, Africa and Asia. China's Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Taiwan, Hainan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan and other provinces have been cultivated for more than 2000 years.
