This coffee comes from the Bukonzo tribal lands in Rwenzori, Western Uganda. The Bukonzo tribe are proud and storng people that have farmed the foothills of the Rwenzori for over 15 generations. The Rwenzoris are famously known as the 'Mountains of the Moon'.
Uganda lies in the heart of East Africa on the shores of Lake Victoria, it straddles the equator and is the source of the Nile. The farmers harvest their coffee by hand, carefully selecting the ripe cherries. The cherries are then pre-sorted before being floated in a tank of water . The cherries
which float are removed, leaving only the best cherries. These cherries are then sundried on raised tables inside purpose built poly- tunnels.
