Sipi Falls Kapkwai
Uganda's Eastern Region is the country's first region where Arabica coffee from Ethiopia was planted. The presence of Mount Elgon, an extinct shield volcano, provides excellent soil conditions for high quality coffee growing.
This coffee is sourced from smallholder producers in the Kapchorwa District, Eastern Region. Their crops are taken to the Sipi Falls Mill, a centralized washing station with the capacity for processing cherry and drying coffee to improve the value to local farmers. Since producers in the region had for years been accustomed to rudimentary processing techniques, the washing station has gone to great lengths to prove the added value of contributing their unprocessed cherry to a central mill where washing, fermenting, and drying can be performed consistently with professional oversight. There is also a nursery with high quality varieties that provides agronomic support to the local smallholders, many of whom are families led by women.
