Front Street-introduction to pointed bourbon coffee

Bourbon is an ancient and excellent variety juxtaposed with Tibica, and I think it is the best subspecies of Tibica. Some botanists believe that bourbon is a variety of early iron pickups transplanted to Yemen.

Bourbon is almost all round beans, beans are a little smaller than tin card, mature later, but the yield is 30% more than Tibica, but quite other high-yield varieties are still too few. It is suitable for growing above 1200 meters above sea level, and its flavor is obviously more prominent than those below 1000 meters, but bourbon has a disadvantage that it will rest for a year as a result. Round bourbon is full of vitality, and its resistance to rust leaf disease is better than that of Tibica, but its flavor is as good as it. Its aroma and alcohol thickness are of very high quality, or even better.

In 1810, bourbon beans were small and round, and most of them were dense, so the central line was S-shaped. Some of the round beans on Bourbon Island have mutated into pointed beans, which is the famous "pointed Bourbon". It is characterized by a caffeine content of only half, low output, weak physique, and extremely rare, just like a weak aristocratic teenager.

In addition, the biggest common denominator of bourbon is that they all need the protection of shade trees. if there is no shade tree to help it block the sun, it is not only not conducive to its growth, but also greatly reduces the flavor of coffee beans.

Laurina was famous in the 18th century, but later suffered from a series of leaf rust and other diseases, this variety of coffee was once extinct in 1942.

Laurina was first rediscovered on the island of Bourbon in 2001, and then replanted by French scientists and coffee on the island of Japan. In 2007, pointed bourbon began to appear in small quantities, because it is rare and expensive, and the price is as much as four times higher than that of Blue Mountain.

The pointed bourbon is famous for its "low caffeine" feature. The caffeine content of this coffee is only 50% of the average Arabica variety, and the chlorogenic acid content is 20% lower than usual. Because of its extremely low caffeine and chlorogenic acid content, sharp-bodied bourbon has few substances that cause coffee to become bitter.
