Sip Coffee Review:
Yunnan Baoshan District is a small-scale but high-quality coffee plantation owned by small farmers. When the aroma, smoothness, and balance of this coffee can be appreciated in such a way, it slowly begins to make me learn to appreciate and cherish.

Estate Story

The Baoshan District in Yunnan Province is known for its high-quality coffee. The history of coffee cultivation here can be traced back to 1952, making it the first region in China to have large-scale coffee cultivation. Baoshan District is located in a low latitude plateau with a unique three-dimensional climate, "one mountain with four seasons, ten miles with different weather," making it very suitable for coffee cultivation.

Unique Flavor

This coffee has flavors of green tea, fresh ginger, and citrus, with moderate acidity, rich texture, and distinct layers. The honey processing method gives the coffee a sweet flavor and silky texture, suitable for coffee enthusiasts who enjoy fresh fruity aromas.

Coffee Variety and Processing

Catimor 14A is a variety hybrid of Timor and Caturra, known for its disease resistance and high yield advantages, making it suitable for cultivation in lower altitude areas. The honey processing method involves removing the skin of the coffee cherry while retaining some pulp and mucilage, then naturally sun-drying. This processing method gives the coffee beans a unique flavor and sweet taste.

Awards and Recognition

Yunnan coffee has gained wide recognition in the international market for its high-quality beans and unique flavors. For example, Yunnan coffee has been selected by international brands such as Starbucks and Nestle, and has won numerous awards in various international coffee competitions.

Project Background

Since 2016, Hong Kong MEDICARE has entered the mountainous areas of Yunnan and collaborated with local small farming families to improve farmers' planting knowledge and management systems. Through community development projects, their passion for nature and coffee cultivation has been enhanced. These measures not only help improve the quality of coffee but also enhance farmers' income and living standards.
