Description of Grinding scale Flavor of Yunnan Coffee beans introduction to the characteristics of varieties produced by taste treatment

Coffee cultivation in China is concentrated in Yunnan Province and Hainan Province. Yunnan has a relatively large output, with an annual output of about 26,000 tons in recent years, accounting for 90% of the national output. Yunnan coffee is said to have been handed down by the French 70 or 80 years ago. The main production varieties are Arabica Arabica, the so-called small coffee species, commonly known as Yunnan small coffee in China. Yunnan's high-quality geographical climate conditions provide good conditions for coffee growth. The planting areas are Lincang, Baoshan, Simao, Xishuangbanna, Dehong and other prefectures. Yunnan natural conditions and Colombia are very similar, namely low latitude, high altitude, temperature difference between day and night, produced by cup quality analysis, coffee belongs to alcohol flavor, its quality taste similar to Colombia coffee.

However, due to various reasons, Yunnan coffee industry development speed is not fast, Yunnan coffee is mainly exported in the form of raw materials, exports in 2006 about 15,000 tons. More than 60% of the raw materials are purchased by Nestle and Max every year, and Starbucks and Amway have also joined the ranks of acquisitions in recent years.

Due to the lack of deep processing and marketing, Yunnan coffee has a low reputation and is 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 development period.

The west and south of Yunnan Province are located between 15° N and Tropic of Cancer, most of which are 1000-2000 meters above sea level. The terrain is mainly mountainous and sloping, with large undulations, fertile soil, sufficient sunshine, abundant rainfall and large temperature difference between day and night. These unique natural conditions form the particularity of Yunnan Arabica coffee taste-strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, slightly fruity. As early as the 1950s, Yunnan Arabica coffee was very popular in the international coffee market and was rated as the top coffee.

The history of coffee cultivation in Yunnan dates back to 1892. A French missionary brought coffee seeds into Yunnan from abroad and planted them successfully in a valley in Binchuan County, Yunnan Province. More than 30 coffee plants bred from these coffee seeds are still blooming in Binchuan County.

Yunnan coffee was planted on a large scale in the mid-1950s, and the planting scale once reached 4000 hectares. By the end of 1997, the province's coffee planting area had reached 7800 hectares. At present, the province's planting area accounts for 70% of the country's area, and its output accounts for 83% of the country's total. Whether it is from the planting area or coffee bean output, Yunnan coffee has established its dominant position in China.

Yunnan coffee suitable planting areas are distributed in Simao, Banna, Wenshan, Baoshan, Dehong and other areas in the south and southwest of Yunnan Province.
