Introduction to the Future Development of Flavor and taste characteristics of African Burundian Coffee

Burundi is located in central Africa with a pleasant climate. Arabica coffee beans grown in the mountains of north-central Africa are of high quality and have won first prize and sixth place respectively in the coffee quality rating of Southeast African countries and the Paris Coffee Fair. According to the annual production of coffee beans in this country, the annual output is between 8000 and 35,000 tons, which is mainly sold to the European markets of Switzerland, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Austria and so on.

Burundian coffee was introduced by Belgian colonists in 1930 and is now grown only on small farms. Unfortunately, many of these farms are on the border with war-torn Rwanda, putting pressure on coffee production. Almost all coffee produced in Burundi is Arabian coffee beans, while coffee trees in Ngozi are planted at an altitude of more than 1200 meters. Burundian coffee has a rich aroma and excellent acidity, and most of its products are exported to the United States, Germany, Finland and Japan.

Prices of Arabrica coffee from Burundi rise

On 17 February 2005, the New York Exchange, together with the Government of Burundi and coffee producers and exporters, agreed to lower the pricing index of Burundian coffee listed on the Exchange by 200 points, that is, an increase of 2 cents per pound (equivalent to an increase of 50 Burundian francs per kilogram). Subsequently, the chairman of the New York Stock Exchange informed the Burundian Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce and the Burundian Coffee Company and invited Burundian Minister of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Pierre. Ndikumagange attended the opening ceremony of the New York Stock Exchange on April 14 to raise the profile of Burundian coffee in the international coffee market.

After the price of Burundian Arabrica coffee was raised, the purchase price of fresh coffee in Burundi was adjusted from 120 Burundian francs / kg to 200 Burundian francs / kg, which is excellent news for countries where coffee export earnings account for more than 80 per cent of total foreign exchange earnings. Due to the abundance of Rain Water in the coffee growing season and good field management, coffee production in 2004-2005 was significantly higher than that of last year. According to Burundian officials, this year's coffee bean production will reach 36000 tons, a sixfold increase over last year (5600 tons).
