Rwanda Fine Coffee introduction to Rwanda Fine Coffee taste characteristics Rwanda coffee is unique

Since the 1920s, Arabica coffee grown in Rwanda has been known worldwide for its distinctive fruity sweetness and intense grassy aroma. In recent years, the Rwandan government has taken active measures to vigorously promote coffee production, establish coffee production cooperatives in various places, and provide technical guidance and financial support to farmers, so that coffee production has developed greatly.

Rwandan coffee, like many African countries, is mainly produced by small farmers. During the harvest period, the ripe coffee cherries are collected and sent to the processing station for processing. Every year, farmers gather ripe coffee berries for processing at processing stations, first picking them by hand to ensure that no immature or damaged fruit is mixed in. Then remove the peel, wash and ferment for 12-18 hours under cool and low temperature environment, and clean the adhered pectin in the channel. During the drying process, the members of the processing station will manually turn and carefully care to ensure that the shelled green beans do not lose moisture or dry unevenly in full sunlight until the moisture content stability of the green beans drops to less than 14%.

With its high altitude and fertile volcanic soil, the country's fertile soil and climate are conducive to plant growth, and coffee trees seem to be driven or forced to grow upwards, or to grow too fast to produce the best coffee beans. Rwanda, the beautiful country of a thousand hills, has a long and rich culture of growing highland coffee, mainly high-quality Arabica coffee. Rwanda is the only country in the world that can fully enjoy the harmony between soil, elevation and climate. In this unique growing environment, Rwanda's high-quality coffee has a distinctive taste and aroma. Bourbon coffee grown in Rwanda is one of the original varieties of Arabica coffee.
