Qianjie-A brief introduction to Yunnan small Coffee in Asian Coffee producing area

Yunnan Xiaogui Coffee came to Chinese mainland in 1892. Since then, this foreign species has been planted in this magical oriental land for more than a century. From the beginning only to satisfy the appetite of the old godfather to become a regional cash crop, coffee in China has experienced not only the model of taking and plagiarism, but also in the process of continuous exploration, cultivation and improvement, coffee breeding suitable for China's geographical environment has emerged.

Yunnan small grain coffee, in terms of taste, is relatively neutral, neither too sour nor too bitter, is really fragrant but not bitter, strong but not strong, slightly sour and comfortable coffee, but also more in line with the taste of the public. If you prefer sour fruit, you should choose Yunnan small coffee beans, which are planted at high altitude and are slightly roasted. These beans have high acidity and weak bitterness. If you just don't like sour, then choose deep-baked beans, but the bitterness will be higher.

Gaoligong Mountain in Yunnan Province is a beautiful place with an average elevation of about 3500 meters. The Gaoligong Mountains span five latitudes and are the only area on earth that has preserved a large area of transition from humid tropical forests to temperate forests. it is an extremely precious and rare area with outstanding biodiversity in the world.

Yunnan small grain coffee grows in the mountains of 800 to 1800 meters above sea level, and there is no better place than Gaoligong Mountain to be in such an outstanding place. Growing Yunnan's unique small-grain coffee, because of the unique geographical environment and special climate, the small-grain coffee grown here is relatively better than other small-grain coffee.

The small-grain coffee in Yunnan is mainly the iron pickup of the native species of Arabica. Because of its poor disease resistance and love for leaf rust, it is necessary to observe its growth at any time and take good care of each leaf. Due to the low output of iron pickup, there is another variety of small grain coffee in Yunnan: Katim. Katim is a combination of Arabica species and Robusta species. Robusta species have good resistance to leaf rust and rich oil, high yield and easy to grow. Katim has 25% of the Robusta gene after crossing with Arabica. Katim has 25% of the Robusta gene, which improves resistance to leaf rust and retains rich oil. at the same time, it has the rich taste of some original species of tin card. So most Yunnan manors began to plant Katim in a large area, and the planting scope of iron pickup began to shrink.

Knowledge expansion: the first place in the world to discover Arabica coffee trees. Coffee is grown almost everywhere in Ethiopia, with thousands or even tens of thousands of coffee varieties.
