Flavor description of Brazilian Yellow bourbon Coffee processing method for Variety characteristics of Grinding scale production area
Coffee was first introduced to Brazil in the early 18th century. In 1727, the Brazilian government sent a personable army officer to secretly bring coffee seeds from French Gaiana to Brazil on the pretext of mediating border disputes. It is said that the governor's wife of French Gayana was so fascinated by the officer that she secretly brought coffee tree seeds to him at a farewell dinner party. At present, 2 million hectares of land in Brazil is used to grow coffee, and the largest is Arabica. These beans will eventually be sent to large bakers in various countries, also known as Santos (in the name of the port of export santos, not the producing area).
Bourbon species, native to Bourbon Island in the Indian Ocean (now known as Reunion Island), is the second species caused by Typica mutation. It belongs to the oldest existing coffee variety. The green fruit appears bright red when ripe, while the yellow bourbon species is derived from the cross between bourbon species and other varieties. Because of its low yield and relatively intolerant to wind and rain, it has not been widely planted. However, when planted in high altitude areas, it will have excellent flavor performance, which is more common in recent years.
