Coffee has a different meaning for everyone. It may be a sense of ritual, or it may represent the pursuit of quality.

They hope to increase coffee exports to promote the country's economic development, and they also hope that the two major tribes, the Hutu and the Tutsi, who once killed each other, will work together to grow coffee, eliminate gratitude and hatred, and jointly build a better tomorrow.

Coffee taste:

Most of the excellent coffee from Rwanda has fresh fruit aromas, reminiscent of red apples and red roses. The aromas of berries and flowers are also common.

Coffee is grown throughout Rwanda, so there are no geographical restrictions. Coffee roasting can be marked with the name of the region plus the name of the wet treatment plant or coffee grower group.

Rwanda, known as the "land of thousands of hills", has latitudes and climatic conditions to grow excellent coffee. Coffee was brought to Rwanda by German missionaries in 1904, but it was not until 1917 that the production of coffee in Rwanda was large enough for export. The first coffee tree in Rwanda was planted at Mibirizi Monastery in Cyangugu province, which became the name of Rwanda's first coffee variety, a variety of bourbon coffee.

By the 1990s, coffee had become the most valuable agricultural product for export in Rwanda, but a major event had almost destroyed the coffee industry. The 1994 genocide, which killed nearly 1 million people, coupled with the sharp drop in coffee prices across the country, had a huge impact on the coffee industry. After the genocide coffee production has had a positive impact on the overall recovery of Rwanda. With the global focus on Rwanda and foreign aid, the coffee industry began to receive great attention.
