缅甸咖啡简介

Coffee growing in Myanmar began in 1885 when missionaries began cultivating coffee plants. In recent years coffee acreage in Myanmar has been increasing and the Northern Myanmar region has shown the potential to produce large quantities of high quality Arabica coffee due to its high elevation plateaus with high quality red soils and ample rainfall. Also grown in Myanmar is Robusta coffee as well as Liberica Coffee and Excelsa. About 80% of Myanmar coffee is grown by small farms using rudimentary  processing methods. Most Arabica coffee is grown in the uplands in the north while the Robusta crops are grown mostly in the lower southern areas.

1885年传教士在缅甸开始种植咖啡。近几年缅甸咖啡种植面积剧增，北部地区为高海拔平原，且具有肥沃的红土和丰沛的降雨，已经表现出生产大批量高品质小粒种咖啡的潜质。除了小粒种外缅甸还种植中粒种咖啡、大粒种咖啡和伊斯尔萨咖啡。小粒种咖啡主要种植在北方山地、高原，中粒种咖啡主要种植在南方较低区域。
