International Delegation Visits Bidun Coffee Demonstration Estate

On February 6th, Mr. Ted Lingle, former president of the Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA), senior advisor to CQI and YCE (Yunnan Coffee Exchange), along with Mr. Shu Yang, General Manager of the Yunnan International Coffee Exchange Center, led a delegation of renowned roasters from Canada, Sri Lanka, the United States, New Zealand, and other countries to personally visit Bidun Coffee Demonstration Estate. They inspected Bidun Coffee's 10,000-mu international specialty coffee base, including the planting altitude and terrain, coffee primary processing plant, green bean processing methods, coffee drying fields, and Bidun Coffee Culture Museum.

Exploring the 10,000-Mu Specialty Coffee Base

Upon reaching Lujiangba, preparing to head uphill, Bidun's 10,000-mu international specialty coffee base is located in Conggang Village, Lujiangba, Baoshan City. Due to the high altitude, the original bus couldn't make it up, so everyone switched to 4WD vehicles, and their equipment was quite impressive.

In early February, it's the season when coffee cherries are bright red. After a winter of tempering, the coffee cherries are competing in their vibrant beauty; the roasters are discussing the coffee before them from their professional perspectives, sometimes serious, sometimes smiling...

Foreign roasters highly praised Bidun's specialty coffee varieties and cultivation methods, with several even placing orders for green beans on the spot...

Cupping Session

The cupping activity took place in the cupping room at Bidun's primary processing plant. The purpose of coffee cupping is to identify the characteristics of the coffee being tested. After professional cupping by the masters, most of the delegation believed that the selected "Bourbon" variety had excellent taste.

Visit to Bidun Coffee Culture Museum

The final stop was the Bidun Coffee Culture Museum. The first floor of the culture museum serves as a window for coffee culture dissemination. When discussing coffee, the delegation leaders expressed their various opinions. They then visited Bidun's precision processing workshop and recognized the standardized design of Bidun's processing workshop.

As a Yunnan coffee enterprise, Bidun has always been striving—striving to improve the specialty coffee industry model, striving to help farmers in the 10,000-mu specialty coffee base increase their income and achieve prosperity, striving to bring every cup of specialty coffee to your side...
