In coffee we say \"Boor-BONE\" more or less like the House of Bourbon because this varietal descends from plants cultivated on the island of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/place\/Reunion\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRéunion\u003c\/a\u003e, east of Madagascar. The island was called Bourbon in the 17th and 18th centuries, before a post-Revolution name change.

Some twenty plants survived the voyage to Réunion. In the 19th-century the cultivar was exported to South America via Brazil, where it became very popular due to its higher yield, relative to Typica.
