In 1892, French missionary Father Tian Deneng preached in Binchuan, Dali. in order to drink coffee, he planted coffee trees in the village of Zhukula, near the church in Binchuan County, and taught local villagers to grow and drink coffee. Up to now, there are still 24 coffee trees that are more than 90 years old in Zhukula Township, and coffee is the main welcome in the local village.

Zhukula Village belongs to the Zhukula Village Committee of Pingchuan Town, Binchuan County, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. It is located at the junction of Dali Prefecture, Chuxiong Prefecture and Lijiang City.

In the 19th century, Zhu Kula was called "Ruokelai" (Yi language), which means winding mountain road.

In 1892, due to the arrival of the French missionary Father Tian, he combined the essence of Yi language with the romance of the French, so the name Zhu Kula came into being, and later generations translated it as "heaven on earth".

And Chinese mainland's earliest Zhukula Coffee is also famous for it.

Yunnan small grain coffee varieties

Iron pickup (typica)

Tieka Coffee, native to Ethiopia and southeastern Sudan, is the most widely cultivated variety of coffee in the Western Hemisphere. The plant is stronger, but not light-tolerant, and the yield is higher in Hawaii. The top leaf of the iron pickup is red copper, which is called red top coffee. Iron pickup is a recognized boutique coffee variety, at present, many commercial improvements are derived from this. The taste is excellent, but the output is extremely low and vulnerable to rust, which requires more manpower management.

Bourbon (bourbon)

Bourbon originated from the iron pickup and expanded after it was planted by the French on the island of Bourbon (now known as Reunion) in 1708. Bourbon also has a beautiful aroma and rich flavor, which is higher in yield and growth than iron pickup trucks. It is suitable for planting in an area of 1200 million meters, but it is less resistant to diseases and insect pests and is more sensitive to strong winds and heavy precipitation. Bourbon coffee is a variety of small-grain coffee second only to iron pickup. The lateral branches and nodes are denser, the fruit is more, and the yield is higher. But the berries are smaller and ripen more slowly. The top bud of bourbon is green, which is called green top coffee.

Small seed coffee Catimor is the Portuguese International Coffee Rust Research Center (CIFC) using Caturra19/IXHDT832/l (HW26) and Caturra19/IXHDT832/2 (H. 6) the general name of the hybrids cultivated has been distributed in most coffee producing countries, and further breeding and adaptability studies have been made, and many different generations of Catimor hybrids and Can-mor derived species have been introduced. Some of them showed good botanical characteristics and were resistant to known rust races, while others were only used as breeding materials. Among the coffee grown in Yunnan, Catimor is the main variety, which has a large planting scale and area.
