Qianjie-introduction to Yunnan Coffee

Climate: within the Tropic of Cancer, the climate is relatively cool and frost-free in winter. In general, different varieties of coffee have slightly different requirements for light, and sometimes proper shading can even increase the complexity of coffee taste.

Rainfall: moderate rainfall, annual precipitation 1500~2259mm

Soil: the drainage performance is good, and the soil with volcanic ash texture is the most suitable.

Altitude: most of the elevations are distributed in the area of 20000m. Generally speaking, the higher the altitude, the better. Most high-quality coffee comes from plateaus or mountains, and some Central American producing areas even grade coffee on the basis of altitude.

Yunnan has a long history and culture, gorgeous scenery, rich in natural resources, known as the "plant kingdom", "animal kingdom" and "non-ferrous metal kingdom" reputation, but also China's largest coffee production base. Yunnan coffee acreage and output account for more than 99% of the country's total. For many years, Yunnan coffee has been the key purchasing object of international coffee giants.

According to the determination of experts, small seed coffee should be planted in the mountains at an altitude of 800 to 1800 meters above sea level. If the altitude is too high, it will taste sour, and if it is too low, it will taste bitter. Yunnan coffee is mostly planted in dry and hot valleys at an altitude of 1000 to 2000 meters above sea level, so it has a moderate sour taste, rich and mellow aroma.

The area with the best coffee quality should be located between 15 °N and 23.5 °N, and southern Yunnan happens to be located in this golden zone, with low latitude, high altitude and large temperature difference between day and night. The unique advantages of natural conditions are especially suitable for the growth of small-grain coffee, and it is the most suitable area for producing high-quality coffee in the country.

The Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau also produces good quality coffee. Yunnan coffee is usually low in acidity, but it has a mellow taste and a well-balanced flavor, often with aromas of nuts, caramel and even chocolate.

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!
