Kaddoura is a variety of bourbon Caturra, which is characterized by single gene mutation, resulting in dwarfing of plants.
Kaddoura is a short and compact plant with good productivity and strong resistance to leaf rust, which is widely planted in Central America.
Kaddoura was found in a plantation in Brazil between 19 15 and 19 18.
Kaddoura's name comes from Guarani, which means "small". It is also called "Naniko".
From 65438 to 0937, IAC in Sao Paulo, Brazil chose to cultivate Kaddoura because of its small beans, compact planting and high yield.
1940 Kaddoura was introduced from Guatemala and introduced to Costa Rica, Honduras and Panama. Today, it has become one of the most important economic coffees in Central America.
Kaddoura is one of the parents of the famous "Catimor" breed family. Different strains of Timorese hybrids resistant to coffee leaf rust were crossed with Caturra to cultivate rust-resistant dwarf plants.
As a parent, Kaddoura has bred many varieties, such as Costa Rica 95, Katic, Lempira, IHCAFE 90 and so on.
