Description
ROAST LEVEL: LIGHT TASTING NOTES: -TOFFEE-LEMON-BERRY-CARAMEL GROWER: Smallholder farms surrounded by the Kapchorwa washing station REGION: Kabeywa, Kapchorwa, Uganda PROCESS: Washed then raised and dried in the sun CULTIVAR: Sl-28, SL-14, Catuaí ALTITUDE: 1950 masl This coffee is harvested from Mount Elgon, a massive peak split nearly in two by the border of Uganda and Kenya. The “mountain” itself, now an extinct shield volcano, is more an enormous expanse of successive plateaus that float dramatically above the surrounding valley floor. It is also home to a dense patchwork of farming communities growing some of the best organic coffee in Africa.
