Coffee has played an important role in Angola for more than a century. From the late 19th century onward, the country grew into one of Africa’s major coffee producers. Robusta coffee from the regions of Uíge, Kwanza Norte and Bengo became known for its bold, full-bodied flavour. By the 1960s, Angola ranked among the top three coffee exporters in the world.

The long period of conflict that followed, however, had a profound impact on agriculture, infrastructure, and production capacity. Many plantations fell into decline, and the coffee industry lost much of its former strength. Despite these challenges, coffee remained deeply rooted in Angola’s heritage – in the land, in the communities, and in the traditions of families who had cultivated it for generations.
