Tanzania's official capital is Dodoma, located at the eastern end of the southern highlands, 1115 meters above sea level and 400km from Dar es Salaam.

Due to geographical location as well as economic and political reasons, people outside Tanzania believe that Dar es Salaam is the capital of Tanzania. In fact, Dar es Salaam is not the capital of Tanzania. It was the capital of German East Africa from 1891 to 1916. It was the capital of Tanganyika from 1961 to 1964 and later the capital of Tanzania. In 1974, the Tanzanian Parliament decided to move the capital to the inland town of Dorma.

Some have their own washing equipment and drying farms, but graded treatment still has to go through large-scale treatment plants. Tanzania has considerable historical experience in growing coffee, and even small farms can handle good quality coffee beans.

Drinking Tanzanian coffee, especially the small round bean peaberry, is always impressive. Coffee is like the simple, frank and enthusiastic national character of Tanzania. Its refreshing acidity and medium mellowness complement sweet citrus and floral aromas. This coffee tastes great whether it's a hot drink or iced coffee. With oranges or berries, it can show its bright flavor. You can experience that different ethnic groups produce different coffee flavors, while the same land is pregnant with coffee trees and people at the same time.

These coffee farms, large and small, all have their own unique ways of operation. The Arusha Coffee Garden Hotel was built on a coffee plantation, and each hut is surrounded by clumps of coffee trees.
