Not just Ugandan. Mount Elgon.

Grown on a single volcano at up to 2,200m, with a bright, winey character most UK coffee drinkers have never come across — roasted in small batches within days of landing, so it still tastes like it.

Where its from

The terraces

Smallholder plots stepped into the slope between 1,600m and 2,200m, mixed in with banana and shade trees the way Bugisu farms have grown coffee for generations.

The harvest

Ripe cherry only, picked by hand in passes through the trees over the main October–February crop, the way selective picking always has been here.

The wash

Pulped and fermented, then washed clean in fresh water at a local station before drying slowly on raised beds — the "fully washed" on every bag.
