Variety Catimor describes a family of selections developed from Caturra and Timor Hybrid crosses. These coffees were bred for compact growth and resistance to coffee leaf rust.

This approach often emphasizes a defined structure and separation of flavors, while fermentation and drying choices still influence the result.
