The history of coffee cultivation in Yunnan can be traced back to 1892. A French missionary brought coffee to Yunnan from abroad and successfully planted it in a valley in Binchuan County, Yunnan Province. the main variety is Iron pickup, the so-called small-grain coffee, commonly known as Yunnan small-grain coffee.

Yunnan small grain coffee, Rubiaceae, coffee genus.

A good bean with good pedigree accounts for a large proportion, so choose the right variety, plant it at an appropriate altitude, and test a treatment that can express its unique flavor when it is mature. Yunnan iron card planting area is mainly distributed in Lincang, Baoshan, Simao, Xishuangbanna, Dehong and other prefectures in Yunnan, China.

The road to boutique coffee is neither so difficult nor so easy. Katim is now mostly planted in Yunnan during the transformation from Yunnan coffee to Yunnan boutique coffee. This variety is a hybrid of Kaddura and Robusta, a bourbon branch of Arabica species. The reason for planting this variety is that Katim has the Robusta gene.

Therefore, the disease resistance is more convenient than a single old variety, and the yield is good. Compared with the delicate old variety, the yield is also low. Farmers naturally prefer to grow Katim, so now there has been a Katim wind in Yunnan.

All the way, in the vast expanse of Katim, it is actually easy to recognize. After careful observation, you will find that each species has its own appearance, Katim's leaves are hanging down, the tree shape seems to be wearing a cloak. Tiebika, on the other hand, has upward branches and new leaves on the top of the tree.

The new leaves at the tips of the branches and leaves above are copper, which is Tiebika growing coffee trees.

Tiebika is an old variety of Arabica species, and the well-known Hawaiian Kona is actually Tibika. In the vast expanse of Katim, it is easy to recognize. Typica, one of the oldest varieties of Arabica coffee, has an oval or thin bean shape, elegant flavor, but weak physique, poor disease resistance and low fruit yield.

Iron pickup coffee beans

Iron pickup (Typica): the shape is oval, the bean body is thin from the side, and the two ends of the iron pickup card are slightly warped. Even if the altitude of the planting area is different, the thickness of the side of raw beans will not be too different.

Planting altitude

For Arabica, 1200 meters is a watershed in quality. Baoshan is more than 1200 meters above sea level, with an average temperature of 21.50 ℃ and a maximum of 40.4 ℃. It is basically frost-free all the year round, forming a small regional climate that is protective to coffee growth and is recognized as the best small-grain coffee producing area. The planting areas are mainly distributed in Lincang, Baoshan, Simao, Xishuangbanna, Dehong and other prefectures. The small grains of coffee cultivated here are strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, well-proportioned, mellow and fruity.

Yunnan's unique geographical and climatic conditions for the growth of coffee beans are not imported, but from coffee grown by the Chinese themselves. Yunnan boutique coffee industry has a long way to go, as long as the direction is clear, the goal is locked, United, based on the current difficulties, look forward to the future dare to bear, firmly believe that Yunnan boutique coffee industry will be better tomorrow!
