Yunnan Provincial Chronicles, Volume 39, Chapter 3 of the Local Series of the people's Republic of China

With regard to the age when coffee was first introduced by the Jingpo nationality in Ruili, Yunnan, the age that can be locked in is 1893. To sum up, and according to one: the memories and testimonies of the old people of China and Myanmar that coffee was grown in many places in Ruili Jingpo area before 1908. According to two: Jing Po Wen's exploration began in 1834 by Mr. Brownson. The early coffee introduction in Burma Muba was on January 27th, 1837, when it was introduced by Eugienio Kincaid, the first Archbishop of British missionaries, for his own drinking habits, and then the Jingpo people on the border between China and Myanmar gradually began to grow coffee. It is proved that the reason for the early introduction and spread of Jingpo coffee is that "the Jingpo people live across borders". Although they live in different countries, they visit their relatives and friends, intermarry each other, and have never been interrupted, and the relationship is very close. However, after Jingpowen came into being, the contact is more convenient and closer than before. The characters have an important influence and great promotion on the political, economic and cultural development of the Jingpo people and the early introduction and spread of Jingpo coffee. According to three: according to historical records, Dr.Ola Hanson hte Ma Ma, a foreign missionary, arrived at Muba on the Sino-Burmese border in 1890. From 1890 to 1893, Hansen often went deep into the Ruili Jingpo area to communicate, and translated the Bible into Kachin (that is, Jingpo language). Thus coffee was introduced into the Ruili Jingpo area with the creation and spread of Christian culture and religious rules and Jingpo characters. Through investigation and demonstration, it is concluded that the age of the early introduction of coffee by the Jingpo nationality in Ruili, Yunnan should be locked in 1893, which is more in line with the history of the Jingpo nationality. Because the Jingpo people introduced coffee and Jingpo.
