Description of characteristics and Flavor of Ugandan aa Coffee Bean introduction to Regional treatment of Taste production

The coffee growing industry in Uganda is one of the pillar industries of its exports. Uganda is the birthplace of Robsta in Africa, just as Ethiopia is the origin of Arabica coffee, while Robster coffee was first discovered in Uganda. So far, Uganda has a history of growing coffee for more than 100 years. The output ranks second in Africa, after Ethiopia. At the same time, Uganda is one of the few major countries in Africa dedicated to the production of organic coffee. In Uganda (Uganda), Arabica coffee beans account for only 15% of the country's total coffee production. Uganda's best coffee is mainly produced in the mountains of Elgon and Bugisu along the Kenyan border in the northeast and Ruwensori in the west.

AA: this is a more common grade. Coffee beans are larger in size and have a particle size higher than 18 mesh or 7.22mm. This kind of beans usually get the highest price.

AB: this grade coffee bean combines A (particle size 16 mesh or 6.80mm) with B (particle size 15 mesh or 6.20mm); accounts for about 30 per cent of Kenya's annual coffee production.

C: this grade is lower than that of AB and is rare in high-quality coffee.

TT: a lower grade, mostly consisting of small beans removed from AA, AB, and E beans. If screened by density, the lightest beans are usually TT.
