Introduction of Qianjie-bourbon varieties

Bourbon coffee is derived from the natural variation of the Tippica coffee variety, which is also a long-standing variety, and both varieties belong to the Arabica variety. Generally speaking, bourbon coffee mainly changes from green fruit to ripe bright red fruit, which is what we have heard of (red bourbon). The fruit is relatively short and round, also known as round bourbon, with high density of pulp and seeds, high sweetness and bright acidity. But in addition to red bourbon, there are actually yellow bourbon (Yellow Bourbon) and rare orange bourbon (orange Bourbon) and rare pink bourbon (Pink Bourbon).

Red bourbon (Red Bourbon)

Bourbon is bourbon, why is it specially named red bourbon?

In fact, after the original bourbon coffee tree blossoms and bears fruit, the fruit color changes from green to light yellow, gradually to a slight orange, and finally to ripe (red) and more mature (dark red), so it is specially called (red bourbon) in order to distinguish it from other bourbon species (pink bourbon, yellow bourbon, etc.). On the other hand, bourbon suggests that growing at an altitude of more than 1200 meters will significantly outweigh the flavor of bourbon beans grown below 1000 meters.

Bourbon and iron pickup are also listed as ancient and excellent varieties, but bourbon is more vigorous and has better resistance to rust leaf disease than iron pickup, but its flavor is not inferior to iron pickup. The most common thing between bourbon and iron pickup is that shade trees must be used to block the sun in order to facilitate growth and flavor development. however, it can be planted in the sun if the following conditions are available: the average annual temperature can be 18 degrees Celsius and 24 degrees Celsius, planting scenes to the northeast or east, only six hours of sunshine a day.

Yellow Bourbon,Bourbon Amarello is a unique bourbon variety in Sao Paulo, Brazil, mainly because the ripening consequence does not turn red, but appears orange, so it is named (yellow bourbon). If Huang Bobang is planted at high altitude, it will have a great flavor. It has swept the Brazilian "extraordinary Cup" competition for two consecutive years, and almost all of the top three prizes have been won by Huang Bobang, which is popular in the boutique coffee industry. Yellow bourbon flavor, usually with nuts and chocolate, acidity is uniform and supple, bitter feeling is weak and clean, the whole is bright and refreshing.
