Tanzania coffee – Africa’s Secret

Tanzania coffee thrives on Kilimanjaro mountain

Tanzanian coffee is grown on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro near the Kenyan border. This is a land of natural beauty and diverse culture. This region has a special climate, altitude and soil, which is the premise for the birth of world-class coffee.

Minerals located deep in the red basalt earth bring a different flavor to the coffee beans. Although the country is not full of modern machines, farmers still produce quality coffee.

The coffee industry is a major contributor to the country’s economy, feeding more than 400,000 smallholder farmers in Tanzania. For them coffee beans are everything. What makes Tanzanian coffee unique is also thanks to the warm, nurturing hands and the taste that is crystallized from the essence of heaven and earth.

The process of harvesting Tanzania coffee

Harvest time in Northern Tanzania is usually from July to December. As the white flowers fall, berries appear. This process takes place throughout the growing season, so the coffee is in different grades. The eggplant seeds are round, from green to red. When the standard sugar content is reached, it will be ready to harvest.

Harvesting is usually done by women, who focus on harvesting mature beans on the entire tree in the coffee plantation.

After harvesting, coffee is selected and put into a separator to remove the skin and mucus layer, and then soaked in water tanks (according to the wet preliminary method – a common method here). This process promotes fermentation, creating the very unique flavors of each cultivated coffee variety.

The coffee beans at the end of the fermentation process are dried until the required moisture is reached; then it is batched, packed, preserved and delivered to reputable exporters and roasters.
