About the Producer
Mountain Harvest was founded by Kenneth Barigye in 2017. Their aim is to reshape the way the world sees and tastes Ugandan coffee through a commitment to long-term economic and environmental sustainability for the producers they work with.
Mountain Harvest source for this lot from 9 communities on the mountain that pass their strict quality analysis and pay 30% above the market price for processed parchment. As is tradition in Uganda, farmers process their own coffee through the washed process at their farms and then sell it as parchment. Mountain Harvest then dry the parchment further in their temperature-controlled warehouse, before sorting it by size. This particular lot has a screen size of 14/15.
