Fragrant Ethiopian coffee flavor and taste introduce fine coffee beans in Ethiopian coffee producing areas

Ethiopian people are addicted to coffee. In 2003, domestic consumption accounted for 42.3% of the total output, with a per capita consumption of 3 kg. But more than half of the coffee produced each year is used for export to earn foreign exchange. The main exporters include the United States, Italy, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, Greece, France, Belgium, Germany and Australia.

Before 1974, the right to produce, process and trade coffee was in private hands. During the military administration, private farms were nationalized and smallholder coffee producers were snubbed. In 1991, the Ethiopian Transitional Government issued a new economic policy to encourage private businessmen to export coffee. As a result, the number of private coffee exporters has increased sharply. Nearly 90% of coffee exports are now in the hands of private exporters.
