Bonabana represents the next step up in Uganda’s specialty coffee journey — a premium-grade Arabica known for its clean sweetness, balanced structure, and refined flavor. Grown on the lush, high-altitude slopes of Mount Elgon, Bonabana benefits from volcanic soil, ample rainfall, and the dedication of skilled smallholder farmers who follow traditional cultivation and handpicking methods.
The coffee is naturally processed, allowing the cherries to dry slowly under the tropical sun. This enhances the bean’s natural sugars and contributes to its smooth, chocolatey body and pleasant fruit complexity. The result is a flavorful cup with notes of cocoa, caramel, and subtle citrus, supported by a medium body and elegant finish.
