Coffee Cultivars (#)
„Amarello - This cultivar, as its name indicates, produces a yellow fruit. It is not widely planted. It matures slower than its red counterpart since darker colors absorb more sunlight. For this reason, some claim it has a higher quality. Blue mountain - A famous cultivar favored for its resistance to the coffee berry disease and ability to thrive in high altitudes. Grown in Jamaica and now in Kona, Hawaii.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide
„Most likely this prevailing cup character derives from variety of coffee tree (most Costa Rica coffee is produced from trees of the straightforward-tasting cultivar Caturra) and sophisticated fruit removal and drying, which eliminates flavor twists and ambiguities that idiosyncratic processing imparts to some other origins.“

„Although high-grown coffees will often grow to be a larger size than lower grown coffees, the various cultivars will grow to different sizes and should not be used as an indicator of quality. Furthermore, it is known that high concentrations of nitrogen will augment bean size, but deteriorate the quality of the coffee.“

International Coffee Organization
„Current plans include the advancement of Arabica coffee in the western region by developing new cultivars that are resistant to coffee leaf rust disease, the replacement of many existing trees and a fuller distinction between grades. Uganda intends to compete vigorously in the gourmet market and has developed liquor profiles that will allow overseas buyers to select their preferred coffees. It is also intended to invest in washed processing facilities for presently dry processed Arabica and some Robusta.“
