- Medium roast ground Arabica from Mount Elgon, Uganda. Jasmine and citrus peel on the nose, lemon and cane sugar in the cup, black tea on the finish.
- 100% Bugisu Arabica, washed process, grown at 1,600 to 2,200 metres on volcanic slopes.
- Roasted and ground in Kampala in small batches.
- Pre-ground, medium grind. Ready for drip, pour-over, or Aeropress.
What's in the bag
50 grams of single-origin Bugisu Arabica, washed and medium roasted, pre-ground. This is the sampler. Same Tendo as the 250g and 1kg bags, just in a smaller format. Good for trying the coffee before you buy more, or for travel when you want a decent cup without packing a grinder.
How it tastes
Jasmine and citrus peel as soon as you open the bag. Brewed, it opens with bright lemon and sweet cane sugar. Medium body, clean. Lively acidity without being sharp. Black tea on the finish, no bitterness. Washed Arabica from Mount Elgon at its cleanest. 50 grams is the cheapest way to taste what Bugisu coffee is supposed to be.
Where it comes from
The Bugisu sub-region on the western slopes of Mount Elgon, where volcanic soil and high altitude produce Uganda's best-known Arabica. Nonda buys directly from smallholder farmers. Community-run washing stations.
