Written by BOSCO HITIMANA of The EABW

"KIGALI, RWANDA– The Cup of Excellence competition- the international prestigious coffee quality competition has boosted Rwandan coffees adding them on the international record of quality coffees.

The Cup of Excellence competition is a series of cupping exercises that ranks various coffees on the international record of specialty coffees. It also encourages the non-qualifiers to improve quality of their coffees.

Held for the first time in Africa and in Rwanda, the competition was meant to honoring the Rwandan specialty coffee farmers and washing stations. The ceremony to award the best coffees was held in Kigali recently."
