And with a little fruit flavor, it is the top grade of coffee, which is highly praised internationally. In addition, in the fifties and sixties, Yongchun, Xiamen and Zhaoan in Fujian Province, Xichang in Sichuan Province and western Guangdong Province also tried to grow coffee, and there was a peak period of coffee production and development.

Coffee cultivation in Hainan is mainly concentrated in Fushan and Xinglong. Since 2009, Wanning and other places have begun to revitalize the coffee industry and encourage farmers to expand their cultivation.

Taiwan is located in the subtropics, the territory is mountainous, and there is an obvious rainy season. As far as coffee is concerned, it is a good growing environment for coffee. Since the British introduced coffee trees during Guang Xu's time, they are still planted on a small scale. The more famous producing areas are Huilin Farm (more than 1000 meters above sea level) in Nantou Mountain area and Hebao Mountain in Yunlin Ancient Keng (294 meters above sea level). Coffee flavor is similar to Central and South American beans, has a soft sour taste and good texture, mild taste.

Yunnan is the main coffee bean producing area in China. Yunnan is located in the subtropical mountain climate zone south of the Tropic of Cancer, with unique plateau red soil, fertile and loose soil and mild climate, which is especially suitable for growing small-grain coffee. Yunnan Province, where the planting area and output account for more than 90% of the country, is mainly distributed in Simao, Banna, Wenshan, Baoshan, Dehong and other areas in the south and southwest of Yunnan.

Yunnan coffee was first introduced in 1902.

Introduced by Chinese missionaries, there are still 24 coffee trees with an age of more than 90 years 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. Because the morphology and habits of the two varieties are similar, the two varieties are mostly mixed. Bobang terminal bud tender leaves are green, called green top coffee; Tiebika top leaves are red copper, called red top coffee.

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.

At present, Yunnan coffee is mainly distributed in 11 prefectures and cities, such as Baoshan, Simao, Yuxi and Dehong. Among them, the quality of coffee in Baoshan and Simao area is the best.

Lujiangba in the dry and hot valley is the "tropical treasure house" of Baoshan. The average temperature in the dam is 21.5℃, the highest is 40.4 ℃, and there is almost no frost all the year round. The small grains of coffee cultivated here are strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, small and well-proportioned, mellow and fruity.

The boutique coffee brand Seesaw Coffee sends professionals to Yunnan every October to help local coffee farmers cultivate coffee seedlings and regulate picking and handling. More and more people begin to focus on the rural land of Yunnan.
