Uganda Rwenzori

Bates Bros Coffee lists Uganda Rwenzori as a dark roast from western Uganda, grown near the Mountains of the Moon. Notes of sweet wood and roasted chocolate come through, with a soothing glow the roaster describes. The coffee is fair trade and organic certified, picked and sorted by hand by the women at the co-op.

Dark here means the roast starts at second crack and runs no more than 15 seconds past it. Bags come as whole bean or ground, in 12-ounce and 2-pound sizes.
