This single-origin Arabica coffee comes from our friends on the slopes of Mt. Elgon in Eastern Uganda. We've worked with them for years, and now you can too.
| Farmers on individual family-owned plots of land on the slopes of Mt. Elgon (Kenya-Uganda border) hand-pick the ripe and red coffee "cherries" and within hours the fruits are pulped at the Gibuzaale washing station (6,100 ft), then soaked for about 2 days before natural drying under the sun. The remaining dried "parchment" around the green coffee bean is removed down the mountain in the town of Mbale. Ready-for-roast green beans are then transported by truck across the Uganda-Kenya border at Malaba and across Kenya to the port of Mombasa; shipped by sea to US; roasted locally in New York or Chicago |
| Bold, full body, with a hint of bakers chocolate |
| Excellent for drip brew machines and makes an amazing single origin espresso. |
| City Roast |
