Mt Kilimanjaro has been the symbol of coffee for Tanzania since coffee was first planted here in the late 1890s. But following years of socialist-inspired rule from the late 1960s through the 1980s coffee plantations were run into decay and ailing trees averaged at least 30 to 50 years old until replanting started here about 10 years ago.


My name is Maja and I’m a Danish born woman crazy beyond passionate about everything coffee. I have written about all aspects of coffee for over 25 years from 60 coffee producing countries across the world.
