Yunnan's relatively gentle mountain area accounts for only 10% of the total area, a large area of land is uneven, vertical and horizontal ups and downs, and there is a gentle plateau surface in a certain area.

In the longitudinal valley of western Yunnan, Gaoligong Mountain is the top of the mountain on the watershed between the Irrawaddy River and the Nujiang River, often covered with permanent snow, forming strange and majestic mountain glacier landforms. The Jinsha River "Hutiajian" canyon, with a relative height difference of more than 3000 meters from the mountains on both sides, is one of the world's famous canyons. The distance from Xidang Tiesuo of Lancang River to the summit of Kagbo Peak in Meili Snow Mountain is about 12 kilometers, and the height difference is 4760 meters. In a narrow range of more than 10 kilometers, it presents a strange landscape of subtropical dry-hot valleys and alpine ice and snow worlds. The natural scenery is equivalent to the latitude from Guangdong to Heilongjiang.

The province is divided into three echelons. Deqin and Shangri-La counties in northwest Yunnan are the first, the plateau in central Yunnan is the second, and the south, southeast and southwest are the third, with an average decline of 6 meters per kilometer. Basins and plateau platforms, the southwest is commonly known as "Bazi"

The history of coffee cultivation in Yunnan can be traced back to 1892. A French missionary brought coffee to Yunnan from abroad and successfully planted it in a valley in Binchuan County, Yunnan Province. The coffee plants of this batch of coffee seeds are still blooming and bearing fruit in Binchuan County.

Yunnan coffee was planted on a large scale in the mid-1950s, with a planting scale of 4000 hectares at one time. By the end of 1997, the planting area of coffee in the province had reached 7800 hectares. At present, the planting area of coffee in Yunnan has exceeded 300000 mu, with an output of 26000 tons, accounting for more than 90 percent of the country's total, with a total output value of nearly 400 million yuan.

1. [output] compared with the popularity of Pu'er tea, the fame of Pu'er coffee is not commensurate with the output. Yunnan coffee production accounts for 98.8% of the country's total output; Pu'er coffee production accounts for 57.8% of Yunnan's total output; and the price of a cup of Starbucks coffee is equivalent to 25 cups of AA grade Yunnan coffee beans.

2. [planting] in 2011, planting one mu of coffee trees in Pu'er can earn 4000-8000 yuan.

3. [export] Pu'er plays a primary role, and most of the coffee produced is supplied to multinational corporations in the form of raw materials.

In 2011, 70% of the coffee beans produced in Yunnan were carved up by coffee giants such as Starbucks, Nestl é, Maxwell and so on.

Coffee exported from Pu'er accounts for 77.8% of Yunnan's total exports.

4. [roasting] Yunnan has the largest coffee processing production line in China, with annual roasted coffee beans reaching 3000 tons.

Starbucks' Yunnan joint venture baking company says the value of coffee beans can rise 10 times after deep processing.

As the largest coffee shop customer in Yunnan, Starbucks has more than 13000 coffee shops in 39 countries around the world.

About 230 of them are in the mainland.

However, Starbucks does not have a store in Pu'er, and it is still difficult to find an authentic coffee shop in Pu'er.
