Tanzanian coffee is a kind of Central / East African water-washed (wet-treated) coffee beans, which is characterized by bright acidity and wild flavor. Kenyan coffee is undoubtedly the best coffee of this kind. Garden beans are usually singled out and sold at a higher price, but their performance in the cup is often unsatisfactory, making people feel that it is not worth it. Tanzania green beans, as a new type of coffee beans, sell very well in the United States, so many roasters have accepted this reality. Indeed, Tanzanian coffee has great potential, but it often misses the expression period of the best flavor because of the long transportation process. Because the coffee industry in Tanzania does not have the same infrastructure as Kenya, it is very possible that coffee beans have become old beans in containers on the way to the port. I can often brew the perfect flavor of this kind of coffee, but the aged beans have completely lost their flavor in a few years.

The coffee producing areas of Tanzania are Moshi, Mbeya and other producing areas around the foothills of Kilimanjaro in the north, and the Songea-Ruvuma area where the Ruvuma river flows to the south. The style is slightly different due to the different growth topography. The coffee produced in the Ruvuma region of southwest Tanzania has wine and fruit aromas, which is different from the coffee in the north near Mount Mt Kilimanjaro.

Tanzania's main coffee producing area, located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, is rich in volcanic soil. Some coffee trees planted here are more than 100 years old. Coffee was first introduced by Christians from Kenya to grow coffee. Coffee trees must be carefully taken care of, weeded and fertilized. Moreover, old branches must be cut off so that new branches can grow again to maintain the quality of coffee beans. Coffee bean processing plants are well equipped. Coffee beans are an important economic crop in Tanzania, and the local government attaches great importance to this industry.
