Qianjie-introduction of Coffee varieties in Yunnan

The coffee grown in Yunnan is Arabica, which has rich and delicate taste, strong smell, high acidity, slippery texture and not easy to have bitter taste. Under the conditions of Yunnan's unique geographical location and climate temperature, Yunnan coffee has a unique flavor of "strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly fruity". After inspecting the coffee planting and primary processing base in Yunnan, international coffee organization tasting experts rated Yunnan coffee as the kind of small seed coffee processed by Colombian wet processing, which is the highest quality coffee in the world.

The two classic high-quality coffee varieties, Tieka and Bobang, are the main varieties of coffee in Yunnan. In 1991, Yunnan introduced Katim varieties from Kenya, which have stronger anti-virus ability and higher yield. At present, the Katim series is the most widely planted in Yunnan, while there are a small number of iron pickups and Borneo plants in Baoshan.

Catimor small seed coffee belongs to the high generation variety of Katim. Katim is not pure Arabica, it is a hybrid of Timor (which belongs to Robusta) and caturra (a variety of Bobang), so catimor has 25% Robusta.

Yunnan is the main coffee bean producing area in China. Yunnan is located in the subtropical mountain climate zone south of the Tropic of Cancer, with unique plateau red soil, fertile and loose soil and mild climate, which is especially suitable for growing small-grain coffee. Today, minibus will learn about the characteristics and flavor of Yunnan katim beans with you.

Catmor, also known as Katimo, was bred by the Portuguese in 1959. It has 3/4 Elaraby and 1/4 Robusta pedigree. It is extremely strong, resistant to disease (resistance to longicorn beetles and leaf rust) and heat-resistant.

For coffee producers, it is an ideal commercial variety in terms of yield, maturity, resistance to diseases and insect pests and flavor. In the past, some people thought that the "inferiority" of Katim's pedigree determined that it could not become a high-quality coffee.

But today more people's view is that the so-called boutique coffee is more closely related to the scientific treatment of bad sections such as production, harvest, processing, production and so on. Under the guidance of this concept, there are more and more high-quality Yunnan Katim coffee with clean and flawless taste and high sweetness, which is surprising.

Knowledge: Arabica coffee is generally thought to be originated from the Ethiopian plateau, widely distributed in the tropics, after repeated mutation and breeding, derived many varieties.
