Since the 1920s, Arabica coffee grown in Rwanda has been famous for its unique fruit sweetness and rich grass aroma.

Like many African countries, Rwandan coffee is mainly produced by small farmers, and the ripe cherry fruits are collected and sent to the processing station every year during the harvest period. During the annual harvest period, the ripe coffee berries picked by farmers are concentrated in the treatment station for treatment, first selected by hand to ensure that no immature or damaged fruit is mixed in. Then remove the pericarp, wash the pectin in the channel after 12-18 hours of washing and fermentation in a cool and low temperature environment. During the drying process of the scaffolding, the members of the treatment station will turn manually and take care of them carefully to ensure that the raw beans with shells will not lose moisture or dry unevenly in sufficient sunlight, until the moisture content stability of raw beans is reduced to less than 14%.
