Qianjie-introduction of Pink Bourbon Coffee

Bourbon Coffee-bourbon species

Let's talk about what bourbon is before we introduce the powder bourbon. Bourbon coffee was first grown in Reunion, and it was also called le Bourbon before 1789. Bourbon, which is the oldest kind of coffee stored with pickup trucks (Typica), turns dark when it is ripe.

Bourbon coffee-vermicelli bourbon

Pink bourbon, the nickname implies that its coffee peaches are romantic pink when ripe. As for the new species, which is very rare, it is bred by the cross of bourbon and bourbon. The reason why vermicelli bourbon is rare is mainly because it is very difficult to maintain this beautiful pink color, and sometimes some orange bourbon is collected, because the color of coffee is determined by the sex genes of pollen grains. Among the pollen grains we have selected for cross, there are both the color gene and the color gene, which are all related to sexual genes and are very easy to interfere with each other.

At present, you can see vermicelli bourbon in Costa Rica and Guardiola. Take this batch of powdered bourbon coffee as an example, about 1800 kilos of coffee are produced in each tree since the end of the season. After peeling and processing, about 0.36kg coffee beans are obtained. In a normal production season, the output of this batch of coffee is less than 650kg.

Colombian pink bourbon was first discovered by coffee farmer Rodrigo Sanchez in the Vera region of Colombia. As the name implies, the pink bourbon fruit is pink after ripening, which is a variety of red bourbon and yellow bourbon. Pink bourbon is an extremely rare bean seed, far rarer than Pacamara and Rosa.

Among the genes that affect the color of coffee fruit, red and yellow are dominant genes, while pink and orange are invisible genes. As a result, the number of pink bourbon is so rare that it is extremely difficult to maintain stability even if it occurs. In addition, the pink bourbon also faces the problem that it is difficult to determine the maturity during harvest.

Pink bourbon is not only rare, but also has a great flavor. This pink bourbon from San Adolf, Vera, Colombia, shows great fruit flavor after light baking: green grape juice, berries, flowers, sweetness and smoothness.

Knowledge: pink bourbon is a hybrid of red bourbon and yellow bourbon, the success rate of the hybrid is relatively low, so the number of pink bourbon is relatively rare, it has a strong disease resistance.
