Introduction of high-quality coffee beans with special flavor in Dominican coffee producing areas

The earliest coffee in Dominica was introduced from Martinique (the overseas province of France), dating back to the early 18th century. Dominica is an island country with a tropical climate, with little change in temperature throughout the year. Except for the lower temperature in the Central Cordillera Mountains, which can reach less than 0 ℃ in winter, the average annual temperature in other areas is between 25 and 30 ℃, while affected by the mountain topography, the north and east face the northeast trade wind with an annual precipitation of 1500-2500 mm, which belongs to tropical maritime climate. The mountain forest is dense, the leeward southwest annual precipitation is 500-1000 mm, the dry season is long, belongs to the savanna climate.

The temperate climate in Dominica is conducive to coffee cultivation, and the best places to grow coffee are the Barahona region in the southwest and the Cibao Valley north of Santiago, Dominica's second largest city. The northern region, represented by Hibao, and the southern region, including Okayabani Santo Domingo, produce good coffee. Among them, Santo Domingo and Barney are famous for their coffee, which is almost synonymous with domiga coffee. The Dominican Republic is a favorite country for tourists. It lives next to Haiti on the island of Hispaniola in the West Indies, Dominica in the west and Haiti in the east. The world's whitest and softest white sand, cool sea breeze from the Atlantic and Caribbean and warm sunshine from the tropics make it a holiday paradise on a par with Maldives and Hawaii. It is the second European colony in the American continent after Greenland, and currently has the oldest Catholic churches, universities, roads and bunkers in America. Santo Domingo, the capital of Santo Domingo, is also the oldest city and capital in America, tracing back to the origin of Tibika, first talking about the coffee trees originally planted in Martinique. These trees were planted by Dominicans as far back as the early 18th century, so Dominica began growing coffee as early as that time. For a time, the Caribbean was almost synonymous with coffee production, but in recent years Cuba, Haiti and other places have been severely damaged by Hurricane George, and later planted Kaddura species with lower numbers and higher harvests.

Dominica coffee is mainly produced in areas such as Cibao in the Central Mountains, the Caribbean and Barahona. There are many large estates in Siwao, and coffee trees are planted with 75% Kaddura and 25% Tibica. In terms of varieties, Baraona is an area with a high proportion of Tibika seeds.
