Rwandan coffee has a vibrant, high-acidity taste with hints of floral and citrus notes. Its medium to light body and clean, crisp finish make it a refreshing and easy-to-drink coffee. Despite its small farm sizes, with an average of 165 trees per farmer, Rwanda has historically been Africa's 9th largest producer of Arabica.
Coffee production for Rwanda was 19,467 tonnes. Though Rwanda's coffee production fluctuated substantially in recent years, it tended to decrease through the 1972 - 2021 period ending at 19,467 tonnes in 2021.
