Yunnan coffee was first introduced by French missionaries in 1902. Up to now, there are still 24 coffee trees with more than 90 years old in Zhukula Township, Binchuan County. In 1914, the border people of the Ruili Jingpo nationality were introduced from Burma to Nongxian Village. Tibika and Bobang, two classic high-quality coffee varieties, are the main cultivated varieties of coffee in Yunnan.

After inspecting the coffee planting and primary processing base in Yunnan, international coffee organization tasting experts rated Yunnan coffee as the kind of small seed coffee processed by Colombian wet processing, which is the highest quality coffee in the world.
