Arabica Bourbon
In the early 1700s the French planted coffee on the island of Bourbon (now called La Reunion) in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Like Arabica Typica, in the early 20th century the first Bourbon seeds were planted next to the emerging city of Da Lat.
Arabica Var. Bourbon is a rarity and today it has nearly completely disappeared from Vietnam. Thanks to a concentrated effort over 15 years between farmers, processors and ourselves, there are now a select few farms still cultivating this specialty coffee around Da Lat City.
Bourbon produces 20 – 30% more fruit than Typica but is unfortunately more susceptible to all major coffee diseases and pests. The high prices this coffee demand is compensation for the difficult farming methods and low yields it produces compared with the today’s common Arabica varieties which lack Arabica Var. Bourbon’s distinctive flavours.
