Last Updated: 2025/08/21, Bourbon coffee is a variety of small-grain coffee second only to Tibica. At first, the main branch and the trunk grew upward at 45 degrees, and drooped with fruit load, the lateral branches were denser, the fruit was more, and the yield was higher. But the berries are smaller and ripen more slowly. The top bud and tender leaves of Bobang are green, called green-top coffee. It was not until 1715 that France transplanted Yemeni mocha round beans to the island of Bourbon on the east coast of Africa.

It was not until 1715 that France transplanted Mocha round beans from Yemen to the island of Bourbon on the east coast of Africa, and it was not until 1715 that it received the name round bourbon. Bourbon, which spread to Brazil and Central and South America in 1727, is also round beans. In addition, the British transplant of Yemeni mocha to St. Helena Island in 1732 was also a round bean. Interestingly, it did not pass through Bourbon Island, but it was named Green Top Bourbon, so it can be seen that it is a big misunderstanding in the industry that all the world's bourbon beans (Bourbon is also translated as Bourbon list) come from Bourbon Island. It is important to recognize that there are many round bourbon beans that spread directly from Yemen without passing through the island of bourbon. In 181○, some of the round beans on Bourbon Island mutated into pointed beans, also known as the "pointed body of bourbon." its caffeine content was only half that of ordinary coffee, and its output was low, weak, and extremely rare.

With the exception of Ethiopia, the origin of Arabica, the mutants or mixed-race varieties cultivated or found in Central and South America, India and East Africa are dominated by Bourbon and Bourbon, and the genetic complexity is much lower than that of Ethiopia, which is the main reason for the weak physique and poor disease resistance of Arabica outside Ethiopia.

In addition, the biggest thing that bourbon and Tibica have in common is that shade trees must be "protected" to help block the sun. If these two ancient varieties are unshaded trees, they will not be conducive to growth and flavor development.
