The best Ugandan coffee in our catalog
Ugandan coffee has moved well beyond traditional washed profiles. Our current selection of 19 lots highlights a clear shift toward experimental processing. Anaerobic natural lots dominate this group, accounting for nearly half of our inventory. You will find SL14 and SL28 varieties appearing in almost every bag, reflecting the standard agricultural focus in the region. Roasters like Five Senses Coffee provide the bulk of these options, though we also feature specific lots from the Rwenzori Mountains and Mount Elgon. Whether you prefer the intense fermentation of a double anaerobic natural or the cleaner, fruit-forward character of a standard natural, these coffees represent the current state of Ugandan production. We have ranked these based on our composite scoring to help you navigate the variety.
What to taste for:Look for heavy, jammy fruit notes and a syrupy body that distinguishes these high-altitude Ugandan lots.
