Cuba’s coffee industry turns to ‘top class’ beans to save its skin


Manicaragua (Cuba) (AFP) – Cuba’s coffee industry is on shakey ground. In 1960, Cuba produced more than 60,000 tons of coffee. In 2021, that figure dropped to just 11,500 tons. It’s hoped that “specialty” coffees, which remain a novelty on the island, could breath life back into a flagging industry.
