Uganda
East Africa's best-kept secret - floral, chocolatey, and grown at extraordinary altitude.
Uganda is a revelation for coffee lovers who haven't yet explored it. From the Sipi Falls area of the Kapchorwa District on the slopes of Mount Elgon, this coffee is grown at a staggering 1,500-2,500 meters - among the highest altitudes in African coffee production. The result is a cup of remarkable delicacy: mild acidity, a light body, and a beautiful interplay of floral notes, chocolate, and dark fruit that lingers long after the last sip.
