Mwezi

Mwezi, meaning “moon” in Swahili, symbolizes brightness, purity, and excellence — all qualities reflected in this premium-grade Ugandan Arabica. Cultivated at high altitudes on the fertile volcanic slopes of Mount Elgon, Mwezi coffee benefits from rich mineral soil, balanced rainfall, and ideal microclimates that enhance both its flavor and aroma.

This coffee is naturally processed, where ripe cherries are sun-dried with their pulp intact. This technique enriches the beans with natural sugars and fruity complexity, resulting in a vibrant and aromatic cup. Mwezi’s careful drying and hand-sorting ensure superior consistency, making it one of Uganda’s most celebrated premium coffees.
