Rwandan coffee is the most popular African coffee after Kenya and Ethiopia. But unlike the two famous countries, it does not have a long history of planting, let alone native varieties everywhere in the wild. This small African country is a fire Phoenix that has been reborn.

Because the country thrives mainly by producing high-quality good coffee beans. The taste of Luanda coffee is described as "grassy aroma" with tropical climate characteristics. Precisely because Luanda's extremely fertile soil and suitable climate are very conducive to plant growth, the soft and full-bodied taste of Luanda coffee is special. Especially in the end, it shows a unique rich aroma of caramel and sweetness, which is worthy of your personal taste.

Changes are bound to be made.

The 1994 genocide claimed nearly 500000 lives and almost wiped out the knowledge and technology of coffee bean growing. at the same time, the price of coffee beans around the world also fell sharply, making the coffee industry in Luanda even worse. Luanda's coffee industry is now on the rise again, hoping to re-establish the infrastructure needed for the production and processing of boutique coffee beans at a steady pace. The most eye-catching is the Joint strengthening Luanda Agricultural Partnership Program (PEARL), which is mainly to help Luanda rebuild agricultural institutions, production capacity and cultivate agricultural talents to help local small farms sell coffee beans directly to buyers in the boutique coffee market. Unlike its neighboring country Kenya, Ethiopia has a centralized auction system, but its agricultural cooperatives can buy and sell directly with buyers. However, if coffee beans are to be exported from landlocked countries, they must travel 1500 kilometers to the port of Mombasa Mombasa in Kenya or the port of Dares-Salam Dar es Salaam in Tanzania, after the exercise of the 2007 Crop of Gold' Golden Bean Competition. Luanda then held its first C.O.E coffee competition in 2008, which drew more buyers' attention to the high-quality bourbon beans produced in Luanda.

Buf Caf é now owns two water washing plants, grows its own coffee trees and buys coffee cherries from more than two thousand small farms nearby. Some of these small farmers are directly employed by Buf Caf é or work in Buf Caf é washing plants, where their wages are higher than the local average. Buf Caf é believes that if employees get higher wages, they will be more willing to pay attention to their work and take pride in the good quality of the coffee produced by Buf. Facts have proved that this idea is correct. Buf's quality control is very strict. Several batches of COE Coffee Competition in Luanda in 2008 and 2010, respectively, are the best coffee companies in Luanda. The income from selling coffee is mainly used for children's school, medical expenses and investment in other poultry and livestock (such as buying a dairy cow to obtain milk for local sale). Direct Coffee introduces the top red bourbon beans of Buf Cafe, which are harvested by hand and washed by hand and dried in a traditional African-style high bed.
