In The Cup
This washed lot from the Nyabirongo station delivers a vibrant, refined cup with notes of blackcurrant, citrus, and ripe stone fruit, complemented by a delicate floral aroma and smooth caramel sweetness. Grown in the fertile foothills of Uganda’s Rwenzori Mountains, it highlights how well-suited this region is for producing exceptional quality coffee, offering clarity and complexity that rival more established origins.
