The high-quality coffee produced in Zaire is dwindling, but the taste of Zaire coffee is still excellent.

The origin of coffee in Zaire:

The best Zaire coffee is grown in the north-east of the country, particularly in the provinces of Oriental and Kivu, where in the past excellent beans and giant beans have been produced.

A small number of coffee plantations in Zaire are used to grow Arabica coffee beans, and most coffee plantations grow Robart coffee beans. Before Zaire became independent in 1960, the vast majority of coffee was grown on plantations. World coffee prices plummeted in 1989 and many farmers gave up their estates. Today, coffee cultivation in Zaire is dominated by small farmers.
