Uganda Mt Elgon A
Uganda and Kenya share two things––a border and some of the world’s finest coffee. Up until recently, Ugandan beans were overlooked in favor of Ethiopian and Kenyan, as coffee-growing in Uganda was still in its infancy. But in the past decade, the country has started to shine, and coffee bean importers have noticed.
This bean is grown on Mount Elgon’s farms––about 1,650-2,200 meters in altitude. They’re traditionally washed and patio-dried to produce a decadent, earthy flavor.
Cupping Notes: Sweet floral aroma with notes of brown sugar, vanilla, and honey. Well-balanced, intense flavor profile with a clean, sweet floral aftertaste. Smooth medium body complemented by bright, crisp acidity featuring citrus, lemon, plum, nectarine, and pomegranate notes.
