The Dominican Republic is located in the eastern part of the island of Haiti in the West Indies, bordering the Republic of Haiti in the west, the Atlantic Ocean in the north and the Caribbean Sea in the south. With an area of about 49000 square kilometers and a population of 7.1 million, the Dominican Republic coexists with the Republic of Haiti on an island adjacent to Haiti. Like its neighbors, the Dominican Republic has had a history of revolution and poverty, but now it has democratic elections and relative stability.

The Dominican Republic has also experienced a history of turmoil and poverty. Now the country has implemented democratic elections and entered a period of stable development. However, it has not yet established formal diplomatic relations with China, but maintains so-called "diplomatic relations" with Taiwan.

The exchanges between the two countries without diplomatic relations are subject to many restrictions in all aspects, which will of course also affect our coffee trade. Dominican coffee is mainly exported to the United States and a small number of European countries because of its superior quality. It is rarely seen in the mainland of China.

To trace the origins of Tibica, we must first talk about the coffee tree originally planted in Martinique.

For a time, the Caribbean region was considered almost synonymous with coffee production, but in recent years Cuba, Haiti and other regions have been severely damaged by Hurricane Georges and have since been replaced by lower-height and higher-yield Kadura species.
