Lake Kivu Coffee Beans

How popular is Rwandan coffee? Riding the wave of domestic live-stream shopping, previously unsold Rwandan coffee bean agricultural products sold out before the Rwandan ambassador to China—who also served as the livestream host—could even finish his introduction. So, what outstanding specialty coffees does Rwanda have? What are their characteristics and benefits?

Known as the "Land of a Thousand Hills," Rwanda is a small country in Central Africa, with a land area just one-fourth the size of Guangzhou. Agriculture accounts for one-third of its GDP, and roughly one in every 30 people makes a living from coffee farming. The coffee produced here has long been renowned for its delicate and refined flavor.

These washed Rwandan coffee beans come from Nyamasheke District in the west, near the famous Lake Kivu. The coffee from this region is celebrated worldwide for its rich, complex, and sweet profile.
