Which brand of Yunnan coffee beans is the best? There are two kinds of mainstream coffee beans in Yunnan; one is a washed tin card and the other is Katim. In Qianjie coffee, Yunnan iron pickup is labeled as Yunnan boutique coffee, while Yunnan Katim is labeled Yunnan small-grain coffee according to the market custom.

Qianjie Coffee has been roasting coffee for more than 9 years, and has been involved in the coffee growing industry for 9 and a half years. Qianjie Coffee came into contact with coffee cultivation at the beginning of its entry into the coffee industry. Qianjie Coffee also has its own coffee plantation, which is in Lincang, Yunnan, China. No matter in the store or online Tmall, guests consult Qianjie Coffee about the flavor and characteristics of Yunnan small Grain Coffee. Today, Qianjie Coffee introduces Yunnan small Grain Coffee to find out.

Introduction to the main producing areas of coffee beans in Yunnan

Yunnan small-grain coffee growing areas are mainly distributed in Lincang, Baoshan, Simao, Xishuangbanna, Dehong and other places (states). Baoshan is more than 1200 meters above sea level, with an average temperature of 21.50 ℃ and a maximum of 40.4 ℃, which is basically frost-free all the year round. It is recognized as the best producing area of Yunnan small-grain coffee. The small grains of coffee cultivated here are strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, well-proportioned, mellow and fruity. With the development of coffee in Yunnan in the past decade, Pu'er and Lincang, which are closer to the south, have become the main producing areas.

Why did Qianjie choose to grow coffee in Lincang?

At first, Qianjie was growing coffee in a place called Dazhen in Guangdong. I didn't know anything at that time, but when the coffee seedlings grew to 20 centimeters, the cold wave in winter came. The town, located north of the Tropic of Cancer, is prone to frost and other weather, and this batch of coffee seedlings did not survive this winter.

After that, Qianjie still studies where coffee is suitable to grow, how high it is good to drink, and what planting management model should be adopted. Qianjie visited the Institute of Thermal Science in Yunnan, as well as local farmers in Yunnan. I have some preliminary experience in growing coffee. Under the opportunity of coincidence, Qianjie found an alpine primeval forest located in Lincang, so it began the process of growing coffee.

The coffee variety planted in Qianjie is the iron pickup card. Compared with the Katim variety commonly cultivated in Yunnan, the iron pickup card has pure Arabica genes and performs better in flavor, but its yield and vitality are not as good as that of Katim. Therefore, many Yunnan farmers prefer Katim varieties with sturdy and high yield.

To plant iron card varieties, it is necessary to properly plant tall trees as shade trees in the coffee field, so the planting density of coffee will not be too high, and the yield per mu will be even lower.
