Qianjie-Indian Coffee introduction

When it comes to Asian coffee, most people will first think of Mantenin in Indonesia, or Vietnamese coffee, Laos coffee, and Yunnan coffee. But few people mention India, which has a long history and is the first country in Asia to grow coffee. It has always had a place in the coffee world and is a major producer of coffee in the world. Today, the editor is going to talk to you about coffee in this country.

The early Arabs monopolized the cultivation and marketing of coffee, and the coffee sold to Europe was the only monopoly, and the control of coffee seeds and saplings was very strict. In 1670, an Indian Muslim practitioner, Babudan Baba Budan, went on a pilgrimage to Mecca, Arabia. he found coffee in the port of Mocha in Yemen, hid seven coffee seeds, took a boat home, and planted the coffee in the Chickmagalur mountains in the south.

In honor of this man, the Indians also call Mount Chickmagalur the Babudan Mountain. Today Chickmagalur is a very important coffee producer in India. Indian coffee was replanted on the Indonesian island of Java in 1696, so coffee was grown very early in India.

Coffee cultivation in India is mainly located in the south, with moist mountain terrain, 800-1600 meters above sea level, few coffee producing areas in the world have as rich a variety as here: forests, herbs, shrubs, flowers and animal groups, to form a magnificent paradise. It is generally tropical in summer and cool in winter, providing an excellent environment for all coffee farmers. Coffee blooming is a spectacle worth experiencing. Throughout the flowering season, people can see the landscape dotted with white flowers, emitting an attractive fragrance, bees and butterflies flying among the flowers. The coffee flowers in the whole area are covered with a sea of white flowers, just like the jewels on the coffee farmer's crown.

[Kent] the Tibica hybrid, a hybrid of S288 and iron pickup, was discovered in 1911 at the Kent Cafe Garden in Mysso, India, with high yield and rust resistance. The aroma of coffee is thicker than that of bourbon, and it has been introduced to new world producing countries such as Kenya and Indonesia.

[S795] Local name: Jember: this variety was bred in India in the 1940s by crossing Kent Kent (Typica selection, tall, high yield, extremely resistant to leaf rust) and Big Fruit Coffee Coffea Liberica. 1955 the Indonesian Coffee and Cocoa Institute (ICCRI), named Jember, is widely grown in India, Indonesia and Ethiopia. This variety has some resistance to coffee leaf rust, but the resistance decreases with time and has the taste of maple syrup or brown sugar. S795 is currently the main variety in India, accounting for 70% of the total output of Arabica.
