Introduction to the characteristics of Flavor and Taste Grinding degree of Coffee beans grown in Yunnan

Introduction of Coffee varieties from Yunnan, China

According to reports, in 1892, French missionary Father Tian used coffee fruit to breed the first coffee tree outside the church, and then cultivated more coffee trees and planted them around the church. Since then, the village of Zhukula began to grow coffee, and the village has been surrounded by coffee trees ever since. Qi Guanghui and Li Fusheng, the two oldest elders in the village, are both in their eighties this year. Together, they have witnessed the formation of the oldest coffee forest in China.

Pu'er, Xishuangbanna, Wenshan, Baoshan, Dehong, Lincang and other places in the south and west of Yunnan are all the distribution areas of small-grain coffee in Yunnan. As of January 1, 2012, according to the comprehensive survey of Yunnan Province, the planting area of coffee in Yunnan has exceeded 800000 mu, and the output of coffee beans in this period is expected to exceed 55000 tons. For the future, local governments in Yunnan have also drawn a blueprint: Dehong is planning to expand the coffee planting area from the current 100000 mu to 200000 mu in the next few years; Lincang plans to expand the existing 20, 000-mu coffee forest by 10 times to 200000 mu in the 12th five-year Plan; and Pu'er also plans to expand the 220000 mu coffee forest to 600000 mu. Other coffee growing areas such as Baoshan and Xishuangbanna are also planning to expand the planting scale.

Since the category of drinks grown in the mainland is mainly tea, and coffee is not the main agriculture, coffee is not very delicate, so special attention should be paid to the selection and purchase of coffee. But Ken, Tiebika and Bourbon have some fruity aromas, and they are less bitter and taste good.

In recent years, Yunnan coffee industry has been paid more and more attention, some of which are exported to Japan, Singapore, Europe and the United States and other places. The Royal Coffee Company (Royal Coffee), located in California, is a well-known company engaged in the sale of selected coffee. They once imported Yunnan coffee, so the quality and quality of Yunnan coffee is gradually improving.

However, due to a variety of reasons, the development of Yunnan coffee industry is not fast. Yunnan coffee is mainly exported as raw materials, with an export volume of about 15000 tons in 2006. More than 60% of raw materials are acquired by Nestl é and Maxwell each year, and Starbucks and Amway have joined in recent years.

Due to the lack of deep processing and marketing, Yunnan coffee is not well-known and unrecognized by people locked in the mountains. It is believed that with the in-depth development of Yunnan coffee industry, the rising demand of domestic coffee market and the efforts of the government and enterprises, Yunnan coffee will usher in a new period of development.
