Qianjie-introduction of Iron pickup and Bourbon Coffee

Today, let's pick two of the oldest Arabica beans, Typica and Bourbon.

Today we are going to talk about iron pickup and bourbon, which are the two oldest families in the "native species". They walked out of Ethiopia, went to the world, and assumed the "breeding responsibility" of bringing good coffee to the world.

Iron pickup (Typica)

More than 2000 kinds of beans are known in Ethiopia, the recognized hometown of Arabica, and there are more unknowns to be explored in the wild coffee groves. Iron pickup is one of the oldest and best native beans in this area. Iron pickup has given rise to many excellent varieties of coffee beans. Such as Mantenin, Blue Mountain, Elephant beans, Kona and so on, are all derived varieties of iron pickups.

Although Ironhide has a good flavor, it is easy to be infected with embroidered leaf disease because of its weak physique, poor disease resistance and low fruit yield, which is not conducive to economic benefits. in recent years, it has been gradually replaced by Kaddura and Kaduai (both are variants of bourbon) in Central and South America. it's getting rarer. Bean-shaped oval, both ends slightly tilted up.

Bourbon (Bourbon)

Juxtaposed with iron pickup as an ancient and excellent variety, there is also bourbon. (it is also believed that bourbon is a variant of the iron pickup truck after it was transplanted to Yemen.)

Coffee beans derived from bourbon are also extremely rich. Pacas, Red Bourbon, Yellow Bourbon, Kenya "SL28" and "SL34", Kaddura, Vera Salch and so on, are all direct derivatives of bourbon.

Moreover, with its exuberant vitality, bourbon is better than iron pickup in resistance to rust leaf disease, but its flavor is as good as that of iron pickup, or even better, and often wins in cup tests. Therefore, in terms of output, it is also slightly more than the tin truck. Bourbon bean body is shorter and rounder than tin card, and its particles are smaller.

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!
