Gamatui - Natural

Summary

This coffee comes from smallholders in the Gamatui community of Kapchorwa, Mt. Elgon, Uganda. It features various SL varieties grown at 1600-1900 MASL. The coffee is naturally processed: fermented in water for 48 hours, re-washed, and dried on African-style raised beds with frequent turning for even moisture content. This method imparts sweet, fruity characteristics from the cherry mucillage, resulting in a distinct grape-like flavor profile.
