Tanzanians still maintain a lot of coffee tradition, and most of the time they collect ripe and fallen fruit under coffee trees, which will somewhat damage the quality of coffee. They have been using the sun method to treat the coffee beans, rarely using the water washing method, which allows the coffee beans to absorb the aromatic substances of the flesh, so the fruit flavor is stronger.

Kilimanjaro coffee is very characteristic, it emits delicate aroma, and contains wine and fruit aromas, people taste endless aftertaste, from the appearance is very similar to Kenyan coffee, the overall taste is more similar to Sumatra Kalou coffee. After drinking Kilimanjaro coffee, I always feel a soft and mellow smell of soil at the corners of my mouth. Coffee gourmets often use words like "wild" or "wild" to describe it. It can be said that pure Kilimanjaro coffee is "the most African coffee." most of the coffee trees in Kenya grow in the mountains north and west of the capital Nairobi, and there are two main producing areas. One stretches southward from the southern slope of Kilinaga, Kenya's highest peak, to near the capital Nairobi, which is close to the equator and is Kenya's largest coffee-producing area. there is also a smaller producing area on the eastern slope of the Elgon Mountains. Kenya grows high-quality Arabica coffee beans, which absorb almost the essence of the whole coffee tree, with a slightly sour, thick aroma, bright, complex, fruity flavor and grapefruit aroma, suitable for hot or ice drinks; it is for this reason that Europeans love Kenyan coffee, especially in the UK and even surpassing Costa Rican coffee as the most popular coffee.

Coffee trees in Kenya can bloom twice a year. Most coffee trees bloom in March and April after the long rainy season, and in most coffee producing areas, the harvest season lasts from October to the end of the year. Some coffee trees blossom in October or November and are harvested in July of the following year. Kenyan coffee has always been picked by hand, and farmers harvest only red ripe coffee beans, and each tree is picked again about every ten days or so.

The Kenyan government takes the coffee industry very seriously and responsibly, where it is illegal to cut down or destroy coffee trees. The buyers of Kenyan coffee are world-class high-quality coffee buyers, and no other country can grow, produce and sell coffee continuously like Kenya. The grades of Kenyan coffee can be divided into AA++, AA+, AA and AB. Among them, Kenya AA is the highest grade coffee in Kenya and the best Arabica coffee bean in the world.
