Rwanda Maraba Coffee
Malaba Coffee (Rwandan: Ikawa ya Maraba; French: Caf é de Maraba) is a "fair trade certified" coffee grown in the Malaba region of southern Rwanda.
The Malaba coffee tree belongs to the bourbon species of Arabica coffee and grows in the fertile volcanic soil of high-altitude hills. Most of the fruit is picked manually during the rainy season between March and May and then sent to a washing station in Malaba to extract and dry coffee beans.
Coffee beans are sold to many roasters, and the best beans are sold to the British Coffee Roasters Federation and the American Coffee Association. Rwanda boutique coffee roasting company buys coffee from Malaba and sells it in the domestic market. Malaba coffee is also used to brew beer.
About 2000 sharecroppers are growing coffee for the Abahuzamugambi cooperative, which was founded in 1999. Since 2000, this cooperative has been supported by the National University of Rwanda (NUR) and the Organization for Agricultural Cooperation in Rwanda (PEARL). Cooperatives have successfully improved the quality of coffee and infiltrated the boutique coffee market.
