Introduction to the production method, Flavor description and Origin of Yunnan small-grain Coffee

At present, Pu'er City has a total coffee planting area of 716000 mu and a coffee output of 45000 tons, ranking first in the province in terms of planting area and output. There are 386 coffee enterprises registered for industry and commerce in the city. Nestl é and Starbucks have been stationed in Pu'er for a long time to carry out business cooperation, and coffee industry groups such as Aishi, Beigui, Kangenbei, Manya, Manlaojiang and other coffee industry groups have emerged, with more than 240000 coffee employees. At present, international coffee companies such as Nestl é, Starbucks, McDonnell, Kraft, Ikam and Louis Dave have set up coffee purchasing stations or centers in Pu'er. Coffee produced in Lincang, Baoshan, Dehong, Xishuangbanna, Honghe and Laos, Myanmar and other countries are mainly traded in Pu'er.

Due to a variety of reasons, the development of Yunnan coffee industry is not fast. Small-grain coffee is mainly exported as raw materials, with an export volume of about 15000 tons in 2006. More than 60% of the raw materials of small-grain coffee 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, the popularity of small-grain coffee is low and people locked in the mountains do not know it. 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, small-grain coffee will usher in a new period of development.

Small coffee is rich in protein, fat, sucrose, starch, caffeine and other substances. after being made into a beverage, it has rich aroma, delicious taste and rich nutrition, so it has become the world's three largest beverages composed of tea and cocoa, and ranks first in the list.

History of specialty products: according to historical records, coffee trees were planted in Taiwan for the first time in 1884, and coffee cultivation in mainland China began in Yunnan. In 1902, a French missionary named Tian introduced seeds from "Yinggong" and successfully planted them in Binchuan County, Yunnan Province. it is located in a place called Zhu Kula, a tributary of the Jinsha River.

Yunnan small-grain coffee is a variant of Arabian original species, which has been cultivated for more than one hundred years after long-term cultivation and domestication.

Environment of origin: the quality of coffee is determined by the environment, climate, cultivation and management techniques and other factors. The best growing environment of small-grain coffee is low latitude, high altitude, sufficient rainfall and suitable sunshine, so the north latitude is 15. The ideal growing area for coffee is between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Cancer. However, other areas in this zone, such as Hawaii and Saudi Arabia in the United States, or low altitude or little rain in the desert, are not conducive to coffee growth, only southern Yunnan in this zone happens to have all kinds of conditions.
