"through the exploration of planting and initial processing technology, the quality of Rosa pea has tended to be mature and stable. This variety has good adaptability to climate and soil in this region, rust resistance, high yield and strong cold resistance, especially in cup quality. In January this year, he got the highest score in the cup test of American coffee experts, "Liu Minghui said.

In January this year, Aiyi Manor sent samples of 33 new coffee varieties planted to the United States and asked Ted Ringer, former president of the American Fine Coffee Association (SCAA), to test the cup. The cup test scores of the first five varieties were 84.25,84.5,84.5,85.5 and 87, and the one with the highest score was Rose Summer.

According to reports, since the Starbucks Group reached a cooperation with Starbucks in 2011 to establish the Starbucks Yunnan Coffee Joint Venture, in addition to commercial cooperation, the two sides have also worked together to improve the planting level of Yunnan coffee and the promotion and selection of varieties.

This time, the successful cultivation of Rose Summer will greatly optimize the planting structure of Yunnan coffee and bring more high-quality varieties for coffee merchants at home and abroad. Yunnan is the largest coffee producing area in China, and the success of Guixia will also have a beneficial impact on the domestic coffee industry.
