Journey back to the absolute origin of specialty coffee culture with our premium, estate-grade selection of Bourbon Coffee (Coffea arabica) seeds. Originally introduced by French missionaries to the island of Bourbon (now Réunion) in the early 1700s, the Bourbon cultivar is celebrated globally by elite roasters and master baristas as one of the most foundational, award-winning specialty coffee lineages in history. This exceptional plant is highly prized for its beautiful, architectural growth, featuring elegant, slender branches that yield clusters of plump, brilliant crimson to deep orange cherries. When harvested and roasted, Bourbon beans deliver a cup of unparalleled balance and sensory complexity, characterized by an intense, buttery chocolate aroma, a silky medium-to-full body, and a highly refined, wine-like fruit acidity with notes of sweet caramel and stone fruits.

Renowned for its natural adaptability and robust growth, Bourbon Coffee is surprisingly easy to grow, making it highly favored by boutique home orchardists, rare plant collectors, and estate growers.

🌳 Cultivation & Care Information

• Botanical Name: Coffea arabica 'Bourbon'

• Common Name: Bourbon Coffee / Red Bourbon / Kopi Bourbon

• Plant Type: Dense, evergreen tropical shrub or compact small tree

• Sun Requirements: Bright, indirect filtered light to partial sun (Essential: Thrives naturally as an understory canopy plant. Prefers bright, dappled sunlight or 4–5 hours of gentle morning sun. Protect strictly from scorching, direct midday afternoon sun to prevent leaf burn and maintain healthy, deep-green foliage).

• Soil / Medium: Requires a highly fertile, rich, organic, and flawlessly well-draining acidic soil mix (ideal pH 5.5–6.2). Highly sensitive to heavy, waterlogged soils that restrict root aeration.

• Watering: Water deeply and regularly to keep the medium consistently and lightly moist, but never waterlogged. Excellent drainage is mandatory to prevent root rot.

• Growth Habit: A highly attractive, dense shrub featuring beautiful, wavy-margined glossy leaves and heavy clusters of highly fragrant jasmine-scented white blossoms that transition into massive, plump cherries.

• Temperature & Humidity: Thrives in cool, humid subtropical or high-altitude tropical environments (ideal temperatures between 15°C–25°C). Entirely frost-intolerant; adapts beautifully to indoor container growth or temperature-controlled greenhouses in temperate zones.

💡 Pro Growing Tip: Specialty coffee seeds are traditionally germinated with their protective outer parchment (pergamino) left intact, which protects the delicate embryo during shipping. To ensure a rapid and highly uniform sprout across this premium 120+ seed batch, soak the seeds in room-temperature distilled water for 24 hours prior to planting. Sow the seeds roughly 1/2 inch deep with the flat side facing downward into a warm, sterile, and highly aerated medium of damp sand or a peat-perlite mixture. Maintain a warm environment (around 24°C–28°C) under bright, indirect light, and keep the medium damp but never soggy. Sprouting typically begins reliably within 4 to 8 weeks!
