位于非洲中东部赤道南侧的内陆国家—卢旺达，境内多山，景色怡人，有“千丘之国”和“非洲小瑞士”的美称。非洲出产的咖啡风味十分多样，风味谱跨度可能是全球之首。不同种类的咖啡，不仅各有千秋，而且风味易于分辨。卢旺达咖啡以柔和顺滑、具有丰富花果香气和甜感著称，近年正逐步占据世界精品咖啡领域一席之地， 受到全球越来越多咖啡爱好者的追捧。
Rwanda， located in central and east of Africa， in the south of the equator， is a landlocked country with many mountains and beautiful scenery. It enjoys the good name of “the country of thousand hills" and "little Switzerland in Africa". Coffee grown in Africa has a wide variety of flavors， which may cover the widest spectrum in the world. Different kinds of coffee have distinguishable flavors and it’s easy to tell them apart. Rwandan coffee is known for its softness， smoothness， rich floral & fruit aroma and sweet taste. In recent years， it has gradually occupied a place in the field of high-quality coffee in the world and been pursued by more and more coffee lovers around the world.

卢旺达咖啡通常拥有蔗糖般的甜味、柔和的柑橘酸，甚至葡萄般的酸味，余韵充满牛奶巧克力加焦糖味，兼顾柔和与明亮的口感，甜美浓郁又易于接受。伴随每一个新的收获季，咖啡的品质还在不断提高。近年来，非洲旅游线路十分火热，但是非洲的迷人之处不仅仅局限于看野生动物、参观原始部落、欣赏原始自然风光，咖啡亦是卢旺达整个国家对外宣传的一张“金字名片”。
Rwandese coffees usually have rich tastes. They are sweet like cane sugar and soft sour like citrus and even grape acidity. Then it will be finished with the flavor of milk chocolate with caramel， which can make people feel soft and bright， full of sweet but easy to accept. With each new harvest， the quality of coffee continues to be improved. In recent years， African tourism has become very popular， but Africa's attractions are more than watching wild animals， visiting primitive tribes and enjoying natural scenery. Coffee is also a "golden icon" for Rwanda to show to the world.
