The Paradox of Arabica in the North West Region of Cameroon, Nso Tribe, Nkar Village: We Grow the Best, Yet Seldom Drink It.

In the Nso Highlands of Cameroon, farmers grow some of the finest Arabica coffee, yet rarely drink it themselves. Most is exported, while communities remain unaware of its value. In Germany, Arabica is culture, health, and human connection. It brings people together and supports well-being. Arabica is rich in antioxidants, smooth in taste, and full of potential. We should not stop exporting, but we should begin roasting, tasting, and promoting it at home. We have the land and the beans. Now we need the habit, pride, and culture.
