Coffee quality is determined by many factors such as the growing environment, climate and cultivation management techniques. Its excellent growth environment is low latitude, high altitude, sufficient rainfall, suitable sunshine, so north latitude 15. The ideal growth zone for coffee is between Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Cancer. Our company's planting base in Yunnan is located at 23℃ north latitude and 99℃ east longitude. The base altitude is 1230 meters low and 1540 meters high. The altitude difference is 310 meters. The terrain is mainly mountainous and sloping, and the fluctuation is large. The soil is fertile, the sunshine is abundant, the rainfall is abundant, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. These unique natural conditions form the special taste of Yunnan coffee-strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly fruity, and the quality is similar to that of Colombia small coffee. Fresh coffee is generally picked from November to February of the following year and processed by washing and wetting. Coffee processing is using advanced imported equipment. Yunnan Coffee currently supplies 30% of its products to the domestic market and 70% to foreign countries.

Because of the excellent quality of Yunnan coffee, in the 1960s, it entered the London market with "Lujiang No.1" and was rated as a first-class product. In recent years, world-famous coffee companies such as Nestle and Mai's have opened up raw material bases in Yunnan. Yunnan coffee products have gradually gained a reputation at home and abroad. Yunnan coffee has formed a strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, with a unique flavor of fruit flavor due to its unique geographical environment and climatic conditions. World-class coffee experts evaluate it as the best coffee in the world. Its cultivation technology and yield are also world-class. Yunnan coffee is a variation of Arabic original species, after long-term cultivation and domestication, generally known as Yunnan small coffee, evergreen small shrub, small kernel, thick peel, sweet pulp, product fragrance alcohol, low caffeine content, so also known as light coffee, is the world's main cultivated variety Catimor: Catimo is not pure Arabica, it is a hybrid of Timor (belonging to Robusta species) and caturra(a variant of Bobang species), so catimor has 25% Robusta lineage, and its Robusta lineage also determines its taste defects: aroma is not rich enough, and the overall taste is bitter, prone to astringent taste and more pungent musty taste.

All varieties planted in Pu 'er area of Yunnan Province are catimor(katim) varieties. In Baoshan City, typica and bourbon were introduced as early as 1950s, which are called "old varieties" locally. Because the old varieties have low disease and pest resistance and yield, and the management is relatively labor-intensive, and there is no advantage in market purchase price, in recent years, coffee farmers have changed to plant new varieties catimor. From the botanical point of view of coffee, Yunnan Arabica coffee has genetic similarity with Jamaica Blue Mountain and Hawaii Kona, two classic high-quality coffee varieties, Typica and Bourbon, which are the main cultivated varieties of Yunnan coffee. In 1991, Catimor series varieties (stronger virus resistance and higher yield) were introduced from Kenya. A variety of Arabian species (also known as small species). Because of the similarity of morphology and habits of these two varieties, they are often mixed and cultivated.
