Qianjie-introduction of Yunnan Baoshan Coffee

Yunnan coffee varieties

The coffee varieties in Yunnan mainly take Typica and Bourbon, two classic high-quality coffee varieties, as the main cultivated varieties. In 1991, Katim Catimor series varieties (stronger anti-virus ability and higher yield) were introduced from Kenya, which is a variety of Arabica species (also called small grain species). Because the morphology and habits of the two varieties are similar, the two varieties are mostly mixed.

Small seed coffee plant name Arabica species, is a kind of coffee, a total of more than 100 varieties. Among them, tin pickup and bourbon are recognized as the best Arabica species in the world, and what the Baoshan people usually call "old varieties" are actually iron pickups and bourbon.

Katim (catimor)

Small seed coffee Catimor is the Portuguese International Coffee Rust Research Center (CIFC) using Caturra19/IXHDT832/l (HW26) and Caturra19/IXHDT832/2 (H. 6) the general name of the hybrid varieties has been distributed in most coffee producing countries, and further breeding and adaptive varieties have been studied, and many different generations of Catimor hybrids and Can-mor derived varieties have been introduced. Some of them showed good botanical characteristics and were resistant to known rust races, while others were only used as breeding materials. Among the coffee grown in Yunnan, Catimor is the main variety, which has a large planting scale and area.

Yunnan coffee producing area

The reason why Yunnan has become the coffee growing place in China is inseparable from its geographical location. The western and southern parts of Yunnan Province are located between 15 °N and the Tropic of Cancer, most of which are 1000-2000 meters above sea level. The topography is mainly mountainous and sloping, with large undulation, fertile soil, sufficient sunshine, rich rainfall and large temperature difference between day and night.

These unique natural conditions form the particularity of Yunnan small-grain coffee taste-fragrant but not bitter, aromatic but not strong, and slightly fruity.

Coffee cultivation in Yunnan is mainly distributed in Lincang, Baoshan, Pu'er and Dehong, where there are natural resources of low latitude, high altitude and large temperature difference between day and night, which makes Yunnan a golden growing area for producing Arabica coffee with high quality.
