Tasting

On the Ugandan flank of Mount Elgon, Bugisu smallholders deliver ripe cherries to cooperative wet mills for careful washed processing and raised‑bed drying. AA grading selects the largest, most even screens, supporting clean, consistent dark development. Taken deep with an extended Maillard phase, this lot settles into a fudgy chocolate core; caramelized sugars read as molasses and toffee; and roasted‑almond/walnut tones round the mid‑palate. Acidity stays very low and smoothly integrated, emphasizing weight and composure. Expect a long, tidy cocoa‑nut finish—dependably rich and dense crema for espresso.
