The quality of China’s coffee beans has made marked improvements in the last decade and may soon come into its own in the specialty coffee market.

Planting and Varieties of Chinese Coffee Beans
Almost all domestic coffee comes from Yunnan, accounting for 98% of production. The main regions within Yunnan for coffee production are Baoshan, Dehong, and Menglian in Pu’er. Pu’er alone accounts for 60% of the country’s total production. Other provinces where coffee is grown include Fujian and Hainan.
Fujian and Hainan mainly grow robusta, while Yunnan grows arabica, with catimor (a caturra-Timor hybrid) as the varietal of choice.
Growing Regions of Chinese Coffee Beans
We’re only just starting to pay attention to China as a producing country, but just like other origins there are variations within the different regions and sub-regions.
The main growing regions in China are Yunnan, Fujian, and Hainan Island. Fujian and Hainan Island are known for growing Robusta, and only account for about 5% of the country’s total production.
The extremely mountainous Pu’er Province – known globally for its fermented teas – is quickly blooming into the coffee-producing capital of China. This region, which is larger than the country of Ecuador, produces nearly half of the country’s total production according to Kubota.
