Tanzania Buboka Robusta - Green Coffee

About the Origin

Grown in the Bukoba region of Kagera, the largest coffee-producing area in Tanzania, this Robusta thrives in fertile soils and at moderate altitudes—ideal conditions for cultivating high-quality Robusta beans. Bukoba’s climate and terroir contribute to a well-balanced, full-bodied coffee that stands out in blends or as a bold cup on its own.

Smallholder farmers in the region use traditional cultivation techniques rooted in generations of coffee-growing heritage, making this Robusta not only robust in flavor but also rich in story and provenance.
