How to Purchase Hainan Fushan Coffee Beans_Where to Buy Fushan Coffee_Price per Jin

Fushan Coffee

Fushan is one of the earliest coffee-growing regions in Hainan. In 1935, Chen Xianzhang, an overseas Chinese returning from Indonesia, successfully introduced coffee to Fushan and established Fumin Farm. The products were exported to Southeast Asia, and Fushan Coffee gained a measure of fame.

In 1957, Zhu De and Liu Bocheng successively visited Fushan to inspect the coffee plantations. After tasting the coffee, they praised it warmly, and from then on Fushan Coffee became famous throughout the country.

Where to Buy

The most authentic Fushan Coffee can be purchased at Fushan Coffee Cultural Town. In fact, coffee from Wanning Xinglong and Qionghai in Hainan is also very famous locally. Recommended brands include Lishen, Chunguang's Charcoal Coffee, and Nanguo's Xinglong Coffee. Beans can also be bought from the Sun River Coffee Factory in Wanning and the Xinglong Longyuan Organic Coffee Garden. Instant coffee costs about 10-20 yuan per package, while beans cost about 60-70 yuan per small package. Beans produced by the Sun River Coffee Factory are relatively more expensive.

Suitable Recipients

Anyone who wants to become a night owl can test how many days they can stay awake after drinking coffee. I once discovered that a friend had given Hainan instant coffee to her roommate, which left her so energetic that she couldn't sleep at night. She organised dormitory discussions every evening and eventually developed "panda eyes."

FrontStreet Coffee Recommendation

FrontStreet Indonesian Wet-Hulled Mandheling — Indonesian coffee is the pick for anyone who loves a strong, low-acid cup, and Mandheling is where it starts. Named for the Arabica grown in Sumatra, it is processed mainly by the local wet-hulling method: because the parchment is stripped while the bean is still half-dry, half-wet, the green bean is left fully exposed to the air, which gives the coffee its telltale herbal and spice character. FrontStreet's Mandheling comes from the Lintong region around Lake Toba and is given a medium-dark roast to deliver the classic Mandheling profile — low acidity, a full body, rich aromas of caramel, dark chocolate and toast, and a long, sweet finish. It is a fine match for those who prefer their coffee strong.

FrontStreet PWN Golden Mandheling — The top of the Indonesian range. PWN buys only high-quality Mandheling green beans, which are screened for density, size, shape and colour, then passed once through machine sorting and again by hand to remove defects. The result is a uniform, plump, translucent bean with far less of the earthy, grassy edge that Mandheling can carry. Freshly roasted, FrontStreet's PWN Golden Mandheling offers sandalwood, herbs, spice, roasted hazelnut, caramel and dark chocolate, with a clean, sweet, deeply concentrated cup and a rich, layered aroma — ideal for daily drinking and just as good as a gift.

FrontStreet Classic Espresso Blend — Back when light, acidic coffee had yet to take hold, Mandheling was considered the richest, most aromatic coffee in the world, and it was often used in espresso. The Mamba recipe was created by Taiwanese roasters in that era: a blend of Mandheling and Brazil that fuses Mandheling's wild character with Brazil's smooth body, while the sweet nuttiness tempers Mandheling's stronger bitterness and herbal notes. FrontStreet's Classic Blend builds on that idea with a small addition of Robusta and a deep roast, drawing out dark chocolate, nut and caramel aromas to the fullest and allowing even a complete beginner to pull an authentic Mandheling-style shot from a moka pot.
