From the highlands to Lake Victoria

A closer look at Uganda.

Ugandan Arabica is grown in highland areas including Mt. Elgon in the east and the Rwenzori region in the west. Robusta grows around the Lake Victoria crescent and in other producing regions.

Our initial range brings together washed Bugisu AA, Screen 18 Robusta and naturally processed Drugar Arabica. Each is evaluated at the lot level.
