For Chinese people, for a long time, "coffee" and "instant coffee" are two interchangeable terms. Until the entry of Starbucks in the United States and teahouses in Hong Kong, people began to realize that coffee was not instant coffee, but something else. What is it? It's fashion. It is the abstract painting, jazz and aggressive coffee flavor of Starbucks; it is a half-tea and half-coffee drink in a teahouse, such as "Yuanyang". Served in exquisite white porcelain plates, it is served with dishes by the waiter. The former, because it is more exotic and fashionable, has become another noun for coffee after "instant coffee".

The history of coffee introduced into China is not long, and it was not until 1884 that coffee was first planted in Taiwan. In the mainland, the earliest coffee cultivation began in Yunnan. At the beginning of the 20th century, French missionaries brought the first batch of coffee saplings to Binchuan County, Yunnan Province, and coffee began to be grown on the mainland.

In terms of natural conditions, many parts of China are very close to Latin America, South America, India, Indonesia and other places, with congenital conditions for coffee cultivation. However, Chinese people have been drinking tea for thousands of years. As the origin of tea in the world, there is more or less resistance to coffee as a foreign beverage in consumption habits and concepts. Therefore, for a long time after coffee was introduced into China, coffee cultivation did not receive enough attention, and the expansion was extremely slow.
