Namisuni Mt. Elgon

Uganda Mt. Elgon Namisuni – Women Coffee Project

This special Arabica coffee grows on the fertile slopes of Mt. Elgon in eastern Uganda. The Sironko region offers ideal conditions for complex, expressive coffees. The natural process allows the coffee cherries to dry slowly, developing intense sweetness and a particularly layered range of flavors.

This coffee is part of Forest Coffees®’ Women Coffee Project. Women do much of the work in Ugandan coffee production, but often have limited access to land, income, and leadership positions. This project supports the greater inclusion and advancement of women throughout the coffee value chain.

Forest Coffees® also works with producers committed to sustainable agroforestry. The coffee comes from protected growing areas where environmental, social, and economic sustainability are all promoted.

Specialty coffee roasted in a traditional drum roaster.
