Caturra
A compact Bourbon mutation discovered in Brazil.
- Lineage
- A single-gene mutation subsequently selected by IAC from 1937.
- Growing conditions
- Short internodes and closely spaced branches suit dense planting; susceptible to leaf rust.
- Traits
- Widely cultivated in Central America and used as a benchmark in variety trials.
Pink Bourbon
A name for pink-fruited coffee; tested samples have included Ethiopian-derived genetic material.
- Lineage
- Café Imports' 2023 testing found both an unmixed sample and samples containing Bourbon or Catimor alongside it.
Gesha
A name used for several genetically distinct coffee lineages originating in Ethiopia.
- Lineage
- Descendants of accession T2722 distributed in Panama form a distinct lineage.
Sidra
Used in Ecuadorian specialty production for closely related Ethiopian-derived genetic material.
- Lineage
- Two Sidra morphotypes in the 2026 VINKA farm study belonged to the Core Ethiopia genetic group.
- Traits
- The study observed morphological variation rather than a single uniform line.
Tabi
A tall composite cultivar developed for farms traditionally growing Typica and Bourbon.
- Lineage
- Composed of selected progenies from Timor Hybrid crossed with Typica and with Bourbon.
- Growing conditions
- Evaluated under shade and full sun, using planting densities similar to Typica and Bourbon.
