The term 'AA' is a classification of coffee. All African coffee beans are graded after they are milled, with grades assigned based on the screen size of the bean. Coffee beans with a screen size of 17 or 18 (17/64 or 18/64 of an inch) are assigned the grade AA, considered by many to be a sign of high quality coffee.

Zimbabwe's climate is largely tropical, but this is moderated by altitude. The terrain of Zimbabwe is mostly high plateau with higher central plateau and a mountainous range in the east. Coffee production is chiefly along the border of Mozambique.

Zimbabwe farms over 9,500 hectares in coffee. The majority of the crop is grown at an altitude of 4500 feet. The most popular method of drying the coffee beans is in the sun, followed by six to eight weeks of conditioning. This, coupled with the unique growing conditions and the care farmers take in cultivation, results in a coffee that has a rich aroma and slightly spicy flavor.
