The history of coffee cultivation in Yunnan dates back to 1892. A French missionary brought coffee seeds into Yunnan from abroad and planted them successfully in a valley in Binchuan County, Yunnan Province. More than 30 coffee plants bred from these coffee seeds are still blooming in Binchuan County.

Yunnan coffee was planted on a large scale in the mid-1950s, and the planting scale once reached 4000 hectares. By the end of 1997, the province's coffee planting area had reached 7800 hectares. At present, the province's planting area accounts for 70% of the country's area, and its output accounts for 83% of the country's total. Whether it is from the planting area or coffee bean output, Yunnan coffee has established its dominant position in China.
