Coffee beans begin to bear fruit 3-5 years after sowing, and 5-20 years is the harvest time. A coffee tree can bear about 3-5 kg of coffee fruit every year. Coffee trees belong to the evergreen family of Akanaceae. They are tropical plants and are not cold-tolerant. Most of them are planted in areas with elevations of 300,400m, and also in highlands with elevations of 2000-2500 meters. But those who plant on slopes above 1500 meters above sea level have better quality. Coffee trees are most suitable for growing in an environment where the average temperature is about 20 degrees Celsius, annual precipitation is 1500-2000 mm, soil permeability is strong, and sunshine is suitable. Coffee is afraid of Frosts Descent and the cold winter, and must not be planted in the highlands where frost falls.

In fact, the Arabs began to grow coffee in 525 BC, and chewing fried coffee beans became popular in the Arab region. In 890 AD, Arab merchants sold coffee beans to Yemen, and Yemenis made coffee beans into drinks for the first time. In the 15th century, coffee was introduced into Europe, Asia and soon into America.

At the beginning of the 20th century, overseas Chinese brought coffee back from Malaysia to grow in Hainan Province. Later, tropical and subtropical provinces in the south began to grow plant coffee one after another. Although the cultivation time is short, the coffee from Hainan and Yunnan provinces in China has excellent quality and unique charm, so it enjoys a high reputation in the world. After some foreign businessmen buy it at a low price, it is processed and sold to the international market. It has become an expensive world-class drink, especially the small-grain coffee grown in Yunnan Province. Because of the large temperature difference between day and night in Yunnan, it is conducive to the accumulation of substances in it. Therefore, it tastes strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, oily and fruity, so it is praised as "the best quality coffee in the world" by coffee merchants at home and abroad.
