Screen 12 represents the most economical yet reliable grade of Ugandan Robusta coffee — offering compact beans that maintain impressive flavor and consistency despite their smaller size. Ideal for value-driven blends, this coffee is chosen by roasters who seek affordability without compromising the authentic taste and strength of true Ugandan Robusta.
Grown in Uganda’s fertile lowland regions, Screen 12 beans benefit from the same nutrient-rich volcanic soils and tropical climate as higher grades. The coffee is handpicked, naturally dried under the sun, and processed with care to ensure stable moisture levels and consistent roast performance.
In the cup, Screen 12 produces a strong, earthy flavor profile with hints of dark cocoa, roasted grains, and mild spice. It delivers a medium body, low acidity, and a smooth, balanced finish — perfect for instant coffee, espresso blends, and high-volume roasting operations. Despite being smaller in size, its cup quality remains steady and reliable, making it a favorite among bulk buyers and commercial roasters.
Screen 12 is particularly valued for its cost efficiency and blend-friendly nature. When combined with Arabica or larger Robusta grades, it enhances texture and crema while keeping the overall production cost low — a practical choice for coffee brands looking to maintain flavor integrity and profitability.
