We’re excited to introduce, for the first time on our menu, a coffee from Uganda, sourced from the very first harvest of Cahoots Coffee — a project led with care and precision by Benjamin Jenkin, who has been based in Africa for over 10 years. This lot comes from the village of Nagasire, on the slopes of Mount Elgon, where Cahoots has implemented an approach focused on quality and valuing the work of local farmers.
Despite challenging conditions — record-high cherry prices, unpredictable climate, lack of infrastructure — the team showed great resilience in delivering a clean and expressive coffee. This lot was processed at the Kapyoma washing station, located at 1,870 meters above sea level. The cherries come from farms situated between 1,600 and 2,150 meters, and consist of approximately 60% SL14, 30% SL28, and 10% Nyasaland.
The process is washed, mechanically depulped, and fermented underwater for about 18 hours, then washed again through grading channels. The import of this coffee was made possible thanks to our partners at Osito Coffee.
This coffee is round and sweet, just as enjoyable brewed as a filter or espresso. Its mouthfeel reminds us of fudge, with notes of vanilla and the sweetness of a ripe peach.
