Cultivar

Also called a varietal, a cultivar a variety of a plant that has been developed by selective breeding. There are two naturally occurring varieties of arabica coffee, bourbon and typica (the latter also simply called Arabica). Bourbon derives its name from the island of Reunion, formerly named "Bourbon," where the variety (grown from transplanted trees) was first identified. Other cultivars in use today are generally derived from these two. Some other cultivars are: Mundo Novo, Maragogype, Catimor, Catuai, Caturra, Variedad Colombia, Pacas, and Blue Mountain . This is not an exhaustive list.
