Bourbon coffee was originally grown on the island of Reunion, which was also known as le Bourbon before 1789. Bourbon, the second species caused by the Typica mutation, is the oldest coffee variety in existence, and the green fruit appears bright red when it is ripe. After the red bourbon general coffee tree blossoms and bears fruit, the color change of the coffee fruit is: green > turn yellowish > turn slightly orange > turn mature red > turn more ripe dark red, so some people also call it [red bourbon], in fact, red bourbon, that is, what we call bourbon species.

Coffee plantations in Brazil are mainly based on two kinds of topography.

One is the Brazilian plateau above 500 meters above sea level, and the other is the Brazilian plain below 200 meters. The main cultivated and well-known variety is bourbon (including yellow bourbon, red bourbon, Pingdou Shan du Shi). The taste of Brazilian coffee is mainly characterized by low acidity, nutty flavor, balanced and moderate thickness. In the world of boutique coffee, Brazilian coffee is not outstanding, but Brazilian coffee is often used as a blending variety in Italian coffee. Because of the high degree of balance, it is often used by merchants as blue mountain flavor beans.

There are many kinds of coffee in Brazil, which are mainly treated by solarization, which are classified according to the name of the state of origin and the port of transport.

Due to the scattered origin and uneven quality, the classification standards are not unified:

The Brazilian grading system, which scores the proportion, size, flavor and taste of defects, is its own independent grading system, which is more complex than that from other countries. For example, "Brasil Santos, NY2 SC17/18 SS FC", NY2 classifies the proportion of defects: the higher the number, the greater the proportion of defects. The order is 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4... NY says it is based on the New York rating standard. SC 17A 18 represents the number of coffee beans. While SS FC (Strictly Soft and Fine Cup) represents flavor and taste, it is divided into two groups: first Strictly Soft, Soft, Softish, Hard, Hardish, Rioy/Rioysh, Rio second is Fine Cup and Good cup. Brazilian coffee is widely loved because of its high sweetness, cleanliness, softness, low acid value and wide use.
