10oz. whole bean coffee

Natural Process

Embogo’s unique taste profile evokes the diverse landscapes of the region where coffee is produced. From the mighty snow-capped Rwenzori mountains to the beautiful, lush savannah of the plains, the diverse ecosystems where this coffee is grown provide ideal conditions for cultivating sweet, dense coffees.

Farmers selectively handpick ripe cherry and deliver it to washing stations or supply chain agents near them. Cherry is carefully sorted at intake where under- and over-ripes, as well as any foreign matter, are removed. Quality assurance begins as soon as farmers deliver their cherry. All coffee cherries are floated in small buckets as a first step to check quality. After floating, the coffee is transported to raised drying beds. 

Each table has dedicated workers focusing exclusively on caring for drying cherry. Workers rake cherry frequently to promote even drying. They also keep track of the weather to make sure cherry is properly protected from rain, excess moisture and too much sunlight. Each table has a traceability tag with the lot info. 

When drying is completed, coffee cherry pods are delivered to the dry mill in Kampala. The mill has the capacity to mill smaller lots separately to help preserve quality and traceability.
