Many people know that China is the hometown of tea, tea drinking has a long history, tea culture is also broad and profound, there are many high-quality tea producing areas in Yunnan, China, especially Pu'er. But did you know that there are not only tea but also coffee beans in Pu'er. The planting area of coffee in Yunnan is not less than that of tea trees, and it is the largest coffee bean growing area in China. Most of the western and southern parts of Yunnan Province in China are 1000-2000 meters above sea level, and the topography is dominated by mountains and slopes, with large ups and downs, 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-strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly fruity. As early as the 1950s, Yunnan small seed coffee was very popular in the international coffee market and was rated as the top grade of coffee.

Starbucks buys hundreds of thousands of tons of coffee beans in Yunnan every year, only a small portion of which are used in China, and the rest are exported and sold abroad, but when it exports, it will not say that they are Yunnan coffee beans, but will only say that they are Starbucks coffee. It is common for Yunnan coffee beans to be exported at a low price and imported at a high price, but marked with foreign brand names. Because the coffee farmers here actually do not understand the effect of good finished coffee on the market, they do not even drink coffee. Although they have planted a large area of coffee forest, they have no way to sell it, so they can only sell it to manufacturers at a low price. After the manufacturer buys it and then exports it to foreign countries and labels, and the Chinese people buy it from abroad, the intermediate price will increase several times. This is why Yunnan coffee is not famous.
