Introduction to the varieties of Qianjie-bourbon coffee

Bourbon has the same tall and conical shape as the tin pickup, but it has more secondary branches and is thicker. The main trunk and branches are thicker, so they are stronger than tin cards and are relatively less flexible. The branches are denser, and this increase in density means that bourbon can produce about 30% more coffee cherries than tin pickle.

The bourbon leaves are wider and rougher than tin cards, and the edges of the leaves are wavy. Young leaves are usually green, but sometimes have bronze tips. Coffee cherries are round and change to a variety of colors when ripe, such as red, orange or yellow (but the color on the same plant is the same).

The name bourbon comes from the island where it is grown. It was named bourbon in 1715 after France transplanted round beans from Yemeni mocha to the island of Bourbon on the east coast of Africa (renamed Reunion after the French Revolution). Then in 1717, the French shipped another batch of round bourbon seedlings from Yemen, which became the forerunner of bourbon coffee.

In 1732, the British East India Company took Bourbon coffee seedlings from Yemen and planted them on St. Helena Island. Between 1860 and 1870, Bourbon varieties were first introduced to Brazil in Central and South America, gradually replacing Tibica, and then Bourbon rapidly expanded northward to other parts of South and Central America.

Red bourbon: red bourbon is a coffee tree introduced to Brazil through Campinas in the south around 1860. it is also a typical coffee tree. It is still widely cultivated in El Salvador, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Peru and other countries in Central and South America.

Yellow bourbon

Yellow bourbon is a unique bourbon variety in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil. the fruit of coffee does not turn red after ripening, but orange, so it is called "yellow bourbon". Because of its low yield and relatively intolerant to wind and rain, it has not been widely planted. The yellow bourbon planted at high altitude will have a great flavor.

Bourbon pointed body: bourbon pointed body is a variety of bourbon species. Found in French Bourbon Island in 1810, the coffee tree is dwarf type, coffee beans are thin, like dysplastic defective beans, and the yield is the lowest among the Bourbon dwarf type. weak and sickly, but its flavor is very special, with a very special citrus flavor and litchi flavor, and the caffeine content is half that of small seeds, which is a natural decaf coffee.

Pink bourbon is a hybrid of yellow bourbon and red bourbon, with strong disease resistance and delicious taste. Compared with other varieties, beans have higher density, and their yield is very low. They are planted between 1500 and 2000 meters above sea level. But the process of cultivating pink bourbon is not an easy task. People need careful care during the whole growth period of coffee trees, and the planting environment is also higher.

Another challenge is harvesting. It is difficult for workers to tell whether they are mature or not when harvesting. The main reason is that yellow genes and red genes of red bourbon are both recessive genes, which are easy to interfere with each other and make pink bourbon not easy to produce. In addition, pink bourbon is very similar to immature red bourbon. It is not easy to recognize and is often mixed together, which is why pink bourbon is rare.

Knowledge: for a long time, bourbon caffeine has been considered to be the leader in coffee because of its low output and good quality.

In short: Qianjie is a coffee research hall, happy to share the knowledge about coffee with you, we share unreservedly just to make more friends fall in love with coffee, and there will be three low-discount coffee activities every month. The reason is that Qianjie wants to make more friends drink the best coffee at the lowest price, which has been Qianjie's tenet for 6 years!
