LIGHT ROAST
Light body with medium acidity, and an exceptional sweetness. Strong notes of strawberry jam. We have a dark, medium and medium dark offering - this is our light roast offering.
You're not supposed to have a favourite child .. but if push came to shove, this would be ours. After roasting, the office is filled with the heady aroma of "strawberry jam on toast".
Grown on rich volcanic soils on the slopes of Mount Elgon in Mbale, this Ugandan coffee goes through a washed process to give it the mild but "bright and clean" taste typically associated with washed African coffees. The varietals - Nyasaland, SL14 and SL28 produce an exceptional sweetness lends itself well to the tasting note of strawberry. If we roast this any longer into medium or dark roast territory we lose the the sweetness and "toasty" overtones.
Our Partners at Dream Coffee work on the ground with a group of 200 smallholder farmers under the Friends of Mother's Initiative (FMI). An initiative that prioritises the hiring of women and supporting single mothers in the Mount Elgon region. All members gain revenue generated by the areas main crop; additionally, women receive coffee farming training with production methods certified by organic EU standards.
