African Moon, Uganda

Grown high in the Rwenzori Mountains of western Uganda — known locally as the Mountains of the Moon — this coffee comes from smallholder farmers working in some of the country’s most dramatic landscapes. The fertile volcanic soil, lush vegetation, and cool climate all play a part in creating its layered flavour profile.

Produced in partnership with Agri Evolve, a social enterprise founded in 2016, these coffees represent a shift in the region’s coffee story. By investing in education, equipment, and fair pricing,

Agri Evolve has helped farmers improve the quality and earn more for their harvests. Across hundreds of small farms, coffee is grown at altitudes of 1,300–2,000m, with the varieties SL14 and SL18 thriving here.

Method: Natural and Washed

Farmers carefully handpick ripe cherries, with some lots dried whole under the sun and others washed to highlight clarity and brightness. Once dried, the coffee is taken to Agri Evolve’s facilities for grading, cupping, and export. The result is a coffee that captures the character of the Rwenzoris — sweet, smooth, and unmistakably rich.
