I stayed in the town of Dali, Yunnan for 3 months and I have personally tasted the Yunnan coffee. I will 100% agree, that it is amongst some of the best coffee I've had in the world, including Italy!

The place in the video is famous for tea, its interesting to see they produce coffee now as well.

i find it really interesting that these coffee farmers of the Wa minorities of Yunnan, have similar looking traditional dresses like our native Sarawak here. Just shows that we are much alike even though separated by distance, mountains, land and sea.

Starbucks never says their coffee is from Yunnan Province, despiting exporting hundreds of thousands tons every year.

I swear Coffee is gonna be one of the products that saved the world. They have recently developed a way to take the used coffee grounds and get bio diesel and combustible bio mass out of it for fuel, energy and heating needs.
