Cameroon is an ideal place for growing coffee, since it has all the things that coffee needs in order to thrive. High altitude (the highlands, where much of Cameroon’s coffee is grown, averages around 5000 feet above sea level), plenty of rainfall, and rich volcanic soil mean that Cameroon has perfect conditions and just the right environment for coffee production. A lot of the coffee grown in Cameroon is robusta, which is grown in all the provinces except the north.
