Cupping Notes: Brown Sugar, Dark Chocolate, Raisin. Low Acidity.
About the Farm: Mount Elgon sits along the border of Uganda and Kenya and is home to thousands of small farmers growing organic coffee at
high elevations. In the Kapchorwa district, the Sipi Falls wet mill works with around 8,000 farms, collecting and processing cherry
from across the northern slopes of the mountain. Built by exporter Kawacom, the mill helped modernize processing in a region
where coffee was traditionally handled in very small batches at home. At 1,800 meters, Sipi Falls manages everything from
cherry intake through drying and quality control, allowing the team to produce clean, consistent coffees that reflect the character
of the Elgon terroir. By centralizing processing, the mill improves quality while also helping farmers earn better prices for their
cherry.
