About This Coffee

On the slopes of the Rwenzori Mountains, often called the “Mountains of the Moon,” Uganda’s Drugar coffees (Dried Uganda Arabica) are sun-dried naturals that capture the raw, rugged beauty of their birthplace. The natural processing method, relatively uncommon in Uganda’s traditional coffee landscape, allows the full sweetness of the cherry to infuse the bean—delivering a final product that feels untamed and juicy. What distinguishes Rwenzori Drugar is the blend of bold potential with unfiltered charm; it’s a coffee that wears its heart on its sleeve, expressive and alive. And beneath its vibrant layers lies a deeper narrative—of evolving practices, empowered cooperatives, and a region discovering new ways to tell its story through coffee.
