Qianjie-introduction of iron pickup and bourbon varieties

Coffee belongs to dicotyledons, Gentiana, Rubiaceae, there are 103 species of shrubs or small trees. The genus Coffee can be divided into 103 subfamilies, such as red coffee, coarse coffee and Mozambican coffee, among which the two valuable original species of red coffee are Arabica and Robusta.

Arabica species is the root is red, the most famous one, originated in Ethiopia, is synonymous with high-end coffee.

Tibica is the closest Arabica species to the native species, and almost all Arabica species are derived from this. Used to be widely grown in Central and South America, the bean shape is long, with excellent aroma and sour taste, but it is not resistant to leaf rust, needs to shelter trees, and has a low yield (harvested only once every two years). So since 1967, when Columbia and Kaddura, which are highly productive and resistant to direct sunlight, have formed a scale, there are few pure Tibica now. The extant Tibika is more common in Jamaica in Central America and Indonesia in Asia. Its fruit is usually large and oval, while its leaves are slender. Like to grow in fertile mountain soil, cold resistance and disease resistance are weak, the yield is low.

Tibica (also known as Typica, English Tibica)

Tibica is the original species of all Arabica varieties. It is said that Tibika originated in southern Sudan, flourished in Ethiopia and was finally planted in Yemen for commercial production around the 7th century AD. Tibica was brought to the East Indies by the Dutch and was the first coffee variety to come to the West Indies, where Gabriel de Klee was planted in French Martinique in 1720.

The ripe fruit of Tibica is red. The yield of this variety is relatively low and its disease resistance is extremely poor, but its excellent cup test quality still makes it popular all over the world.

Knowledge: iron pickup and bourbon, the two ancient varieties, have multiplied for three hundred years in different soil and water in the new world, creating thousands of varieties and hybrids.
