Growing Regions - Africa
Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee. The quality coffee offers unique taste options incorporating varying degrees of fruit and floral overtones in the flavours. Main harvest times are from October/November through to April.

Tanzania grows both arabica and robusta coffee. The arabica, is grown mainly on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru, towards the border with Kenya. The robusta is grown predominantly in Bukoba (west of Lake Victoria) and Usambara in the East.

Uganda produces both arabica and robusta varieties but both are of variable quality.

A good Kenyan is one of the finest coffees in the world, due to the intensity of body and fruitiness of flavour. There are two harvests each year, the main crop is picked between October and December and the secondary crop (fly crop) picked between June and August.
