MUKY UGANDA ANAEREOBIC

 PINEAPPLE | CINNAMON | CHERRY | COCOA |

Muki Fruity is a delicate microlot designed for clients seeking a gentler flavor profile than the stronger Imbalu Coffee. This coffee features notes of mango, cherry liqueur, dark chocolate, tamarind, and balsamic, along with winey acidity.

The microlot was named by combining the names of the strong team: Norman Mukuru and Maria Kirya. Maria, Head of Quality at Norman's, has been with the company since its inception in 2018 and brings years of experience, having worked in coffee since 2009. She is fundamental to developing coffee flavor profiles and finds blind cupping especially interesting, as it helps her identify processing issues without bias, providing valuable feedback to the production team while ensuring that the coffee meets customer expectations.

Norman Mukuru is a coffee guru with decades of experience. In the flatlands approaching the foothills of Mt. Elgon, he established The Coffee Yard, a huge coffee-drying center with a formidable reputation for high-quality naturals and a diverse range of cup profiles curated to match individual clients' preferences. 

For the past several years, The Coffee Gardens and Norman Mukuru have been working closely together to raise the quality of coffees from Mt. Elgon.

All farmers are registered with The Coffee Yard and are engaged through an established network of lead farmers and buying agents. Data is collected to ensure compliance with standards such as the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). Over the past several years, Norman and his team have trained this network of farmers to meet various internationally accredited standards, including Rainforest Alliance Certification
