Tanzania Coffee Bean Characteristics Flavor Description Grind Scale Region Variety

The Tanzania Coffee Council (TCB) will identify six new areas as coffee growing areas, bringing the total number of coffee growing areas in the country to 13 in order to reach the target of producing 100,000 tons of coffee by 2020. Adolph. Kumburu said the council's staff stationed in the producing areas will provide services to farmers and guide them to grow the varieties newly developed by the Tanzania Coffee Institute.

Tanzania currently produces 50,000 tons of coffee a year, making it Africa's fourth largest coffee producer. Tanzania is keen to boost its coffee production through various measures as international coffee prices soared last year. According to data provided by the International Coffee Organization (ICO), the ICO coffee price composite index [1985.54 0.27%] reached its highest point since 1994 at 184.26 cents/lb in December last year, and world coffee exports reached 7.6 million bags in November last year, an increase of 900,000 bags over the same period in 2009.

Tanzanian coffee was also developed in the hands of German and British colonists and has been loved by Europeans from an early age and squeezed into the ranks of famous brands. The most favorable factor that makes Tanzanian coffee famous is Hemingway and his novels.

Tanzania's Mount Kilimanjaro ("Kilima" means mountain,"Zaro" means radiant) 5895 meters above sea level, connected with Mount Meru (Mt.Meru), Tanzania's main coffee production base. The Moshi and Alexia regions, located on the southern slopes of Mount Meru, also produce large quantities of high-quality coffee beans. Eighty-five percent of Tanzanian coffee is grown on small farms.

The coffee cups produced in Songea are fairly standard, reflecting the common characteristics of "northern" coffee. Kibo coffee loses this property due to the flavor loss we mentioned during transportation. Songea has a clear, bold taste, although it is still slightly milder than Kenyan coffee. This season Nkoanekoli and Ngorongoro also joined the ranks of coffee cultivation, which represents the development of coffee cultivation in other regions. However, there is a place where the coffee is old and tasteless, and there is no performance in the cup. We tested some of the beans, and they all had a distinct "shipping problem," in which the flavor of the coffee beans had been lost in transit. But the problem is that although Tanzania has recognized this problem and paid extra for it, the quality of the coffee beans has not improved. So what can we do to motivate people to actually take steps to prevent the quality defects of coffee beans caused by transportation, so that their flavor can be better expressed?
