Java

A Typica selection is suspected to be the progeny of coffee introduced from Yemen to the island of Java. From Java, this plant was first brought to neighboring islands (Timor) and later to East Africa (Cameroon), where it was released for cultivation in 1980. It has since been introduced in Central America by the Centre de Coopération Internationale en Recherche Agronomique pour le Développement (CIRAD). It is known to be vigorous with moderate yield and shows good resistance to coffee berry disease in Cameroon. Java has elongated fruit and seeds and bronze-colored young leaves.

Why do we grow Java?

We have recently started planting the variety to be able to offer our clients something different and special on the table at the time they come to origin. Java is a very rare variety, more so in this country, which is why it is a unique opportunity for us to produce and process this variety exclusively for our clients.
