Introduction to the characteristics of the smooth and soft coffee flavor manor of Kilimanjaro in Tanzania

Rainfall types are divided into bimodal distribution and unimodal distribution. The areas with bi-modal rainfall distribution include the provinces around Lake Victoria Basin, the northeast highlands, the coast and the northeast inland. The bi-modal rainfall distribution area is characterized by two long and short rainy seasons. The short rainy season occurs from September to December, and the total rainfall can reach 200-500 mm. The long rainy season occurs from March to May, and the rainfall can reach 300-600 mm. The areas outside the double pattern rainfall area belong to the single pattern rainfall area. The rainfall time is from November to April, and the rainfall reaches 500-1000 mm. Due to geographical location, economic and political reasons, people outside Tanzania believe that Dar es Salaam is the capital of Tanzania. Dar es Salaam is not the capital of Tanzania. It was the capital of German East Africa from 1891 to 1916. From 1961 to 1964 it was the capital of Tanganyika and later Tanzania. In 1974, Tanzania's parliament decided to move the capital to the inland town of Dodoma.

Mount Kilimanjaro, located in northeastern Tanzania, is the highest peak in Africa at an altitude of 5895 meters. The high altitude makes the top snow all year round, while Tanzania's main coffee producing area is located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. This area has rich volcanic soil, which provides sufficient nutrients for the growth of coffee trees. Coffee trees are generally grown at altitudes above 1150 meters, which is one of the prerequisites for Arabica's superior flavor.

Tanzanian coffee is often washed, and coffee farmers will send the coffee fruit to the nearest processing plant for processing after picking. The treatment steps of the washing treatment method are as follows: firstly, impurities doped in coffee fruits are screened and removed; then coffee pulp and exocarp are removed; the coffee fruit is sent into a fermentation tank, and pectin layers adhered to the endocarp are removed through fermentation; and drying treatment is carried out after cleaning. Tanzanian coffee is graded in the same way as Kenyan coffee, according to bean size. During screening, green coffee beans are allowed to pass through a sieve with holes of fixed size. The larger the number of the sieve, the larger the particles of the green coffee beans are. The flat beans classified by size mainly include AA+, AA and AB. In addition, there is also a set of sieve size standards for PB (peaBerry), which produces more round beans in Kenya and Tanzania, to classify the size of round beans
