South Sudan achieved its independence on July 9, 2011 and didn’t produce its first coffee crops until 2015 but there’s potential for this country to see their coffee exports increase over the next few decades thanks to international purchasing partners like Nespresso. For now, South Sudan is a Robusta-only producer, but they do have elevations as high as 10,456 feet on Mount Kinyeti. It’s possible Arabica could be grown on its slopes.
