Qianjie-Tanzania Coffee introduction

After Tanzania became independent in 1961, the government focused on the coffee industry, trying to achieve the goal of tripling coffee production by 1970, but the plan did not materialize. After slow industrial development, high inflation and economic depression, Tanzania has become a multi-party democracy.

In the early and mid-1990s, the coffee industry carried out a series of reforms. Coffee producers are allowed to sell more directly to buyers, rather than all through the National Coffee Marketing Board. The coffee industry was hit hard in the late 1990s, when coffee blight spread across the country, reducing the number of coffee trees near the northern border of Uganda. Today, Tanzania produces 70% of Arabica and 30% of Robusta.

First of all, the Arabica series includes Tibica, Blue Mountain and Arusha in addition to the main varieties of Bourbon and Kent. And then there's Robusta.

90 per cent of Tanzania's coffee comes from 450000 small farmers and the other 10 per cent from larger estates. It is possible to trace coffee back to farmers'co-operatives and wet treatment plants, and if it is manor coffee, a single coffee farm where the source can be found. All the high-quality coffee I have tasted in recent years comes from the manor, and I would suggest starting with this kind of coffee.

The coffee harvest season in Kilimanjaro extends from October to February of the following year. About 1 million people in the area live on the coffee-growing slopes of the mountains, and coffee cultivation is the only income for many of them. Recently, coffee leaf rust (Roya) caused by climate change and temperature change has become the biggest threat to Kilimanjaro coffee beans.

Kilimanjaro coffee, grown on the volcanic slope of the highest peak in northeastern Tanzania, shows a distinctive flavor, with a balanced taste and bright acidity, is one of the most exquisite coffee species in Africa.

Knowledge: Tanzania, located in eastern Africa, south of the equator. It is bordered by Kenya and Uganda to the north, Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique to the south, Rwanda, Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west, and the Indian Ocean to the east.

In short: Qianjie is a coffee research hall, happy to share the knowledge about coffee with you, we share unreservedly just to make more friends fall in love with coffee, and there will be three low-discount coffee activities every month. The reason is that Qianjie wants to make more friends drink the best coffee at the lowest price, which has been Qianjie's tenet for 6 years!
