1. What is Catimor Coffee?

Catimor is a coffee strain developed in 1959 in Portugal, crossed by two coffee varieties named Caturra and Timor. Because of its good vitality, suitable for cultivation, growing in Vietnam’s soil and climate conditions, bringing high yields, this type of coffee gradually replaces coffee strains such as Bourbon, Typica, and Mocha.

These 3 coffee strains are very famous, but they are difficult to grow, susceptible to pests and diseases, and give negligible yields, so they are rarely invested in cultivation in Vietnam’s coffee fields.

The harvest time of this type of coffee usually falls in the rainy season in Vietnam, so the harvesting conditions are not really favorable, and the output is small.

2. Arabica Catimor coffee characteristics

Catimor is a woody, bushy, low tree. The leaves of the plant are small, giving fruits and seeds that are round and spherical in shape. This is considered one of the coffee varieties with high economic value in Vietnam.

Coffee beans are in the shape of a round toilet and are small in size. Usually, just looking at the outside appearance, it is difficult to recognize and distinguish this coffee line from other common coffee lines. Instead, people will rely on its characteristic aroma and taste.

Catimor coffee has a low caffeine content, only about 1 to 2%. Coffee beans when used to mix with water give a light brown color and extremely impressive waves. The highlight of this coffee comes from the bitter taste mixed with the unmistakable gentleness, charm, and passion. 

If you pay close attention, you will notice that this coffee also has a slightly sour, attractive taste, which is extremely suitable for the taste of the drinker. The aftertaste left in the coffee is extremely passionate and deep, creating an unforgettable feeling.

Catimor is a low-growing form of coffee that has the ability to grow quite thickly. Is a branch in Arabica coffee. This coffee tree has the characteristics of being easy to grow, bringing high yield, and is widely popular in large raw material areas: Lam Dong, Da Lat, Dak Nong, Quang Tri, Nghe An, Son La… for Catimor coffee in particular and other types of coffee in general. Provided that all requirements are met, a premium coffee flavor is achieved.
