🌍 Overview
Grown on the fertile, volcanic slopes of Mount Elgon in Mbale, this Ugandan coffee is produced by a collective of 200 smallholder farmers and roasted lightly to showcase its exceptional natural sweetness. Expect a bright, clean cup bursting with strawberry jam on toast, softened by gentle cocoa and a smooth, elegant finish.
After roasting, the roastery (and office) fills with the unmistakable aroma of strawberry jam on toast — which tells you pretty much everything you need to know.
Our Brew Bags make it effortless to enjoy this coffee at its best. Not instant. Just vastly better.

Hook the bag over your mug, bloom with a little hot water, then top up and let it drip. Best enjoyed black to let the fruit shine.
