Producer overview

Zukuka Bora Coffee Company operates in Uganda, sourcing coffee from the regions of Bududa, Mt Elgon, and Sipi Falls. Their production occurs at high altitudes, specifically within the 1700 to 2100 meter band.

The producer focuses on the SL14 and SL28 varietals, which are present across their catalog. These two cultivars serve as the foundation for their output regardless of the processing method applied.

Their process portfolio demonstrates a range of techniques. While they utilize traditional washed and natural methods, they also engage in experimental treatments including anaerobic natural and honey processing.

The catalog footprint for Zukuka Bora includes nine distinct lots, with harvest years represented through 2025. Currently, one roaster is identified as carrying their coffee.

Recent catalog examples include the Jackfruit Spiked and Mango Spiked lots, both processed as anaerobic naturals, and the Sipi Natural, which utilizes a natural process. All three examples feature a blend of SL14 and SL28 varietals.

The work of Zukuka Bora is characterized by a consistent reliance on SL14 and SL28 varietals paired with a diverse range of processing methods.
