Introduction of Burundian Coffee

Burundi has the most diverse and successful coffee industry in the world, and has its own characteristics. Coffee in this country was introduced by Belgian colonists in 1930 and is now grown only on small farms. Unfortunately, many of these farms are on the border with war-torn Rwanda, putting pressure on coffee production. Almost all coffee produced in Burundi is Arabian coffee beans, while coffee trees in Ngozi are planted at an altitude of more than 1200 meters. Burundian coffee has a rich aroma and excellent acidity, and most of its products are exported to the United States, Germany, Finland and Japan.

The cultivation of Arabica coffee trees in Cameroon (Cameroon) began in 1913 as the Blue Mountain Coffee from Jamaica, but the country also produces large quantities of Robbins coffee. The quality and characteristics of Cameroon coffee is similar to that of coffee from South America. The best coffee in the country comes from Bamileke and Bamoun in the northwest. Here, it also grows some giant coffee beans and bean-shaped berry coffee.

Since the late 1980s, coffee production in Cameroon has declined, from 1.8 million bags in 1987 to 1.1 million bags in 1990, while Arabica coffee has dropped from 400000 bags to 200000 bags in the same period. Today, due to the strengthening of the management of the State Coffee Supervision Bureau (National Coffee Supervisory Agency), the output and quality of coffee may pick up.
